That's remarkably good. On a 2.667 GHz i7 desktop machine, iForth (64bit)
takes 2.22 ms. Adjusting for clockspeed, 2.22 ms * 2667 / 54 = 110 ms, as 
compared to PIC24's 181 ms.

The speed difference between PIC24 and PIC18 is much higher than the 
expected factor of 2. I guess FlashForth for PIC24 is radically different 
and uses more of the available registers?
