  30. In all of the following tables, the best performing result in each row, is
  31. assigned a relative value of "1" and shown in bold, so a score of
  32. "2" means <span class="emphasis"><em>"twice as slow as the best performing result".</em></span>
  33. Actual timings in nano-seconds per function call are also shown in parenthesis.
  34. To make the results easier to read, they are color-coded as follows: the best
  35. result and everything within 20% of it is green, anything that's more than
  36. twice as slow as the best result is red, and results in between are blue.

  48. As usual with performance results these should be taken with a large pinch
  49. of salt: relative performance is known to shift quite a bit depending upon
  50. the architecture of the particular test system used. Further more, our performance
  51. results were obtained using our own test data: these test values are designed
  52. to provide good coverage of our code and test all the appropriate corner
  53. cases. They do not necessarily represent "typical" usage: whatever
  54. that may be!
