Run three times and took the middle in this time.

If cores are in sleep mode, the results are poor. You need to warm
cores up somehow.

I forget how to disable the deep sleep mode by a command on Linux.
(Open a special file and write something?) I believe that Andi knows
that.

To my experience, 1G network is NOT good enough.

I read your code and you export these functions. That's why GHC does
not inline them automatically.
