And here are some numbers from Cygwin B20:

   Without Optimizing     -      With Optimizing
1.      21000                         21000
2.       9300                          9300
3.      24900                         33200
4.      24800                         36968
5.      24904                         38643
6.      23199                         36638
7.      23885                         37516

Hope it does that for my program when I port it over. :-)
