See attached benchmark program.  Time varies slightly from run to run but on
my machine using DOS Eu, I get 1.4 seconds for 10,000,000 direct procedure
calls, compared to 2.1 seconds for 10,000,000
calls via routine_id().  [This is using routine-id as efficeintly as
possible, as a predefined constant, preassigned variables about the same as
constants, calculating routine_id() in the procedure call takes about 8
seconds.]
