The relevant thread can be found here:
http://search.gmane.org/?query=Profile+results+for+21.5.21+and+21.5.18&am...
(The profile results are rather large.)
But in light of Stephen's message, perhaps I should try to recompile
b18 and b20 with error-checking off, and get profile results for
those.
But as I mentioned, b22 with error-checking off is still rather slow
and much slower than b18 with error-checking on.
