So what your saying is that my estimate of the performance of your Trie implementation is wildly optimistic.

Therefore the number of comparisons/second you achieved is less than the 21,250,000 figure I used as a divider in the rest of my calculations.

Ergo: Your proposal would take even longer to run.
