Not needed. I can reproduce the result (the bad timing) in version 7. It 
got faster in version 8.

Again, my apologies, as the OP on this extended thread.  When I first 
got the 19 second timing on evaluating this integral I believed I was 
running version 8, but I was actually still running version 7, for which 
this is apparently the correct (if somewhat surprisingly long) timing.  
I'll spare you the details of how my original error happened.   --AES
