but it still doesn't explain how i can just change the names on your
global routine and get completely slower consistent times.

a routine by any other variables is still that routine, no?

i had suspected that Forno's routine would be faster, simply because it 
left out an assignment and a calculation compared to the other two 
routines.

i had not considered that the machine i running it on might make a 
difference.

thanks,
