gforth-fast on a Core i7-4790K (running at 4.4GHz thanks to Turbo mode):
real    0m0.117s
user    0m0.112s
sys     0m0.000s

vfxlin 4.71 on the same machine
real    0m0.117s
user    0m0.112s
sys     0m0.000s

Strange.   Let's see what the performance counters say:

perf stat -e instructions:u -e cycles:u vfxlin-4.71 "include /nfs/nfstmp/anton/VfxLinEval-4.71/Lib/Ndp387.fth include bench.fs" >/dev/null
        1041236122      instructions:u            #    2.08  insns per cycle        
         499547195      cycles:u                 

       0.116635759 seconds time elapsed

perf stat -e instructions:u -e cycles:u /localtmp/anton/gforth/gforth-fast bench.fs >/dev/null
        1595291884      instructions:u            #    3.14  insns per cycle        
         507562915      cycles:u                 

       0.117390969 seconds time elapsed

While VFX executes fewer instructions, apparently the dependencies are
such that this does not result in significantly better performance for
this benchmark.
