Igor,

Your test program always returns an empty sequence instead of a slice,
because your test sequences contain only zeros.  This isn't a realistic 
test, and it gives you an artificially fast score for your version of 
rtrim().  If you make the test more realistic, with the majority of test 
sequences containing some non-zero values, you will find that both 
rtrim() have about the same speed.

However, your code is shorter and easier to understand, which in my book 
counts for a lot.
