Well...my experience with gifshow and viewgif is as follows:

viewgif suffers on speed from having to puzzle out how best to make up for the
CoCo 3's lack of color resolution, and then having to draw things twice to let
it toggle between screens.  I modified viewgif to try to speed up the analysis
phase as much as I could.  (I sent the mods back to Vaughn Cato.)

Unfortunately, I didn't save the timings I did, but...one .GIF file that I have
that viewgif took some time, I think something like forty or fifty seconds to
analyze and then perhaps a minute or so to decode and display on the CoCo with
viewgif takes seven seconds to decode and display on my MM/1.  (Viewgif had a
portion of its decoding, if I remember rightly, written in assembly language;
gifshow is all in C.)

That file is about 50K.  It would be pretty scary to run the file I've been
trying out with gifshow on the CoCo...it's 650+K long.
