In all of the following tables, the best performing result in each row, is
assigned a relative value of "1" and shown in bold, so a score of
"2" means <span class="emphasis"><em>"twice as slow as the best performing result".</em></span>
Actual timings in nano-seconds per function call are also shown in parenthesis.
To make the results easier to read, they are color-coded as follows: the best
result and everything within 20% of it is green, anything that's more than
twice as slow as the best result is red, and results in between are blue.
</p>
<p>
Result were obtained on a system with an Intel core i7 4710MQ with 16Gb RAM
and running either Windows 8.1 or Xubuntu Linux.

As usual with performance results these should be taken with a large pinch
of salt: relative performance is known to shift quite a bit depending upon
the architecture of the particular test system used. Further more, our performance
results were obtained using our own test data: these test values are designed
to provide good coverage of our code and test all the appropriate corner
cases. They do not necessarily represent "typical" usage: whatever
that may be!
