On my machine it takes 6-8 secs...

Damn the machine {1,2,'C','K',1} ...

Using TestCPU

                   MOV memory  MOVSD memory  Calcul.score
PIII    @550Mhz :  429 MB/s    1126 MB/s     220
Winchip @200Mhz :   60 MB/s     142 MB/s      35

          score -  Dhrystones  Whetstones    MIPS   MFLOPS
                :  203         195           200    215
                :   45          24            17     22

So I should divide my times by 10 ...

Also I can't tell wheter an algorithm which is faster on my
machine will be faster on Rob's machine because of different
cache size (actually I have larger L1 cache than PIII but PIII
has faster L2 cache) and PIII's advanced features such is branch
prediction, SSE etc.

P.S. : I've just fixed yet another bottleneck in my routine
the #2 will be really tough...also a bit of luck will decide...
Maybe I should move to #3 but I do not dare to challenge David Cuny.
