Sorting a TOrdCollection

Greetings,
I have a TOrdCollection of TObjStrings that I want to sort. I
used the Sort() method in the TOrdCollection class but it seems VERY
slow. It took about 400 CPU second on a Dec Alpha to sort a
TOrdCollection containing 22,000 TObjStrings. This seems to take
longer than it should and I eventually will need to sort a
TOrdCollection with over 1,000,000 TObjStrings. Am I doing something
wrong? Is there a way to speed it up?
Jim
