agreed. testing is certainy in order.

sorry about that. thats my own fault. in testing with your origional
PPM library, i discovered this program runs at "full speed" when i 
forget all my SSE2 flags. i've basically been optimizing the code to run
on a "small cache, large CPU, deep pipeline" system. such as my P4. ;)


so, again, i THINK this runs at the faster speed on lower end hardware.
but i havent the hardware to test. ;)
