I fail to understand how something can "not work" when it is clearly
working, and very successfully too, in two different languages. All of
your complaints have been on the basis of *timings*, which really
means you're complaining about performance, not correctness. If you
can show any evidence that something actually is not *working*, please
do so (in a fresh thread, not in a hijacked one).
