Thanks to Andrey V. Savochkin for his patch for my problem with
Electric Fence that I posted on August 20 for 2.1.xxx.

Though still slower than 2.0.xx, the patch looks like a big
improvement for 2.1.xxx, running my Electric Fence example over
10 times faster.  The patch didn't apply against 2.1.116-2.1.119,
so the new results below are for the patch applied to 2.1.111 (the
only earlier 2.1.xxx that I still have).


Elapsed time in seconds     2.0.34      2.1.117     2.1.111-patched
-----------------------     ------      -------     ---------------

Without Electric Fence       3.82          3.72          3.76

With Electric Fence         14.61        325.85         29.73


The improvement is very much appreciated.

Thanks,
