Neat! and Thanks.  Always wanted to time one of these old PC98's:

on PC9821Bf with WD AC31200
       43.87 real         0.03 user         0.73 sys
on PC9821Ne with IBM DPRA21215
       31.17 real         0.09 user         2.24 sys
on PC9801BA with Conner CP3544
       41.97 real         0.10 user         1.79 sys

..., but what does this tell me?
