This is very intriguing. I would certainly like to know why
5.12 is apparently much slower. I don't believe we have had
other reports of that, so I'm guessing the reason depends on
the details of the program you are running. In the absence of
the program, I don't think we can tell. So I'll take this opportunity
to encourage you to post the program if you can.
