It is about 2,8514851485148514851485148514851 times faster at my
workstation.

That's an impressively precise measurement. Tell me, where do you find an O(10^32)Hz timebase?

I just calculated this value using the two (rounded) /bin/time results (288.08 sec. vs. 101.69 sec.) Correct rounding would have resulted in just 2.8235294117647058823529411764706 which is lesser than 2.85+. In fact the result is more exact without rounding the ms, so the ultimate result is approximately 2.8329235913069131674697610384502 times faster;)
