Of course. I suppose there's something broken in OP's C++ setup (in fact
the version I compiled with VCPP 2005 also takes a lot of seconds...
something like 20-30 seconds, but of course this makes me think I
haven't understood how it is supposed to work, since my gcc gives
results comparable to yours).
