Nice, on quad core, the old entry,

    $ time ./Old 6400 > /dev/null                                    
    ./Old 6400 > /dev/null  6.99s user 0.01s system 99% cpu 7.015 total

And Tim's parallel entry,

    $ time ./A 6400 +RTS -N6 > /dev/null
    ./A 6400 +RTS -N6 > /dev/null  6.89s user 0.03s system 346% cpu 1.995 total

Noice!
