Ya, I noticed that last night after everything was running TWICE as fast.
I knew it was too good to be true.
I'm cooking on some numbers right now based on loop sizes of 9, 99, and 999 (step 1)...and so on...
After those get done cooking, I'm going to expand those number out to 32 bit with larger steps and let it cook again. Like you annotated, could take months!
