Right, so the difference is 16msec when run with 1M tests, so that means each
function call saves 1.6e-3 x 1e-6 = 1.6e-9 or 1.6 nanoseconds, or less than 1.3
clock cycles at 800MHz. This is basically the episilon-squared I was referring
to in the original post. =\

Most assuredly, the only things worth considering is a) readability of the code
and b) support of older processors for which the code is optimized for (P6
arch).

Again, I vote in favor of whatever appears to be the most clear and
understandable approach, or if no decision can be made, then just closing this
bug already.

Patrick
