Hi Linas,
no apologies, you where right... I mean I should had recompiled the
entire library with optimization flags tourned on and see what
happens... now I did it. I recompiled the library with

export CFLAGS="-g -O3 -march=i686 -funroll-loops -fomit-frame-pointer"

and I ran the test again. What happens is that nothig changes: the
relative merit of JHONSON on TADIKAMALLA is not reduced.
