Thank *you*!  This has been really interesting, and your explanations
have been very helpful in understanding what's going on.  The mmap
idea has been around for a long time, and it's great to have some real
data.

By the way, do you have the option of timing things with an executable
on a local disk?  I think that's a very commonly used configuration
these days.  (I always avoid linking via NFS if I can, and I'm kind of
lazy about that sort of stuff.)
