Omid,

if you want a comparison on equal hardware sent your version to SSDF. This is
the testing where the _programs_ are compared in a statistical valid way. The
WCCC is about the best weapon, with the best strategy and luck and would loose
its interest if it were a SSDF-Testing reduced to 11 rounds.
