Oops, I didn't even notice that QC-2.3.* was out, let alone that they added 
a field to Args.
Sorry again.

Thanks for benchmarking.

Your numbers come as an unpleasant surprise.
The factors are generally lower than anywhere else I've so far got feedback 
from, but what's really disconcerting is that the Float -> Integer 
conversions are actually slower than the current, apparently.
I have no idea yet how that can be.
