in thread how to speed up program dealing with large numbers?

Worth the effort?

What effort? I would have used an array from the start, meaning it take extra effort to use the hash version. Besides, we're talking of a 5 character difference.

Compare that to the original implementation

Why? When benchmarking video cards, you don't compare them to a CGA video card, you compare them to each other.

    The effort you made trying to think of something, anything, to post.

    And because you do it wrong, everybody should.

    When benchmarking

    Your micro-optimisations would still not make a blind bit of difference.
