Please check your coding again, as errors do occur - see my previous post & the initial posting on this matter.

Gerald,
For the sake of completeness, I run your programs on my physical A and C machines.
I got:
version A machine: 414s
version C machine: 432s
consistent with the observation that version A is slightly faster (+5%).

I assume that there is something different in the implementation of your programs in your C machine.
Can you please check again? - Errors do occur :-)
Only you can do it since you are the only one to get such a speed difference (40%).

Please share your findings, I'm now curious...
