Correct me if I'm wrong, but that is a top-level statement executed
exactly ONCE (when uncommented )
Bizzare, because variable s1 is not referenced *at all* after that
point (I'm measuring just up to the --s2 =3D {} line, no further).

Andy, Rob, just that *one* line uncomment made it run like a dog (TEN
times slower: 130 seconds vs 13 seconds) on my PC.

Bizzare, because code *NOT* referencing that variable, like I just
said, runs ten times slower!!

Andy: I think you have definitely found something .
