Did you do the compile?   I didn't notice any changes at all on my box at the
office between 19.19 and 19.20.  However there are eval changes, so if you are
just looking at total time, it might be slower, because the tree could be bigger
due to many of the eval changes...

I generally watch raw NPS for speed comparisons...
