[Coco] Speed question

I am trying to gauge the speed of the CoCo3FPGA with a real CoCo3. I am
running a simple BASIC program.

10 FOR A=0 TO 10000
20 PRINT A
30 NEXT A

Can someone with a real CoCo type in this simple program, time how long
it takes, and send me back the results? I would like to see 6809 and
6309 runs. It can be run at either the standard speed or the fast speed,
since it scales nicely. Here is a list of the ones that I have taken.

0.89 MHz	172 sec.
1.79 MHz	86 sec
4.167 MHz	36 sec
12.5 MHz	25 sec
25 MHz	8 sec		(really 21.875 MHz)


Thanks

Gary
