Hi BrowserUk -- is there more to posting the results than giving the summary stats I gave at the top of the node? My benchmark didn't give me any more than that, actually. This is the text that's at the top of the grand-parent that I'm speaking of:

Regexp : 230 wallclock secs (229.86 usr +  0.06 sys = 229.92 CPU)
Index  : 22 wallclock secs (21.47 usr +  0.01 sys = 21.48 CPU)
Merged : 663 wallclock secs (663.73 usr +  0.17 sys = 663.90 CPU)
