This paper is about the quest for efficiency when using APL. We now have many tools for improving the efficiency of APL applications. These tools include (1) compiled APL, (2) other languages in the APL environment, (3) functions written in assembler language, (4) libraries of efficient building blocks, and (5) using inherently better algorithms. These tools can be applied with varying degrees of effort. With this full arsenal at our disposal, we can achieve any desired efficiency while retaining most of the advantages of the APL environment for developing software.
