I not only agree with other posters but am downright jaw-dropping astonished
that you got lower() to appear faster that lower1() in ANY circumstances!

My analysis was that lower() must create 5 or 6 * 1,000,000 - long sequences
before finally calculating the result.

Are you by any chance on a Linux box while we're all on Windows?
