From my old mails, I profiled b18 and b20; I never tried (or even
downloaded) b19 for some reason.
I'll give that a try soon.
And I see from my old mails, I tried b20 with the --disable-kkcc and
--disable-mc-alloc. Still slow, but somewhat better. Things got
better when I disabled error-checking, but still quite a bit slower.
