If I'm clicking a button, does it matter if it takes 0.001 or 0.01 seconds to process?

The problem with VB was that any code that did any half serious work was very slow - Delphi provided around 20 times increase in performance. VB was also not very multi-threaded, so in some cases clicking on button made you wait for a while for VB app to do work, computers were much slower back then too. That's why Delphi won popularity, not for me though - I always hated pascal.
