Did I thank you for a good explanation? If not, thanks that was 
interesting and enlightening.

BTW, this is what I call _way way_ faster. Unfortunately due to the 
limited configuration of my system, the test suite has following timing

     real    3m14.482s
     user    2m10.556s
     sys     1m12.328s

Anyways it's better than the timing I get for running it on a spinning 
disk which takes

     real    4m37.585s
     user    2m17.244s
     sys     1m37.136s

Thanks,
