I did, (only after I read your post responding to someones post responding
to that...my news server seems to only get about 30% of the articles
posted here, and so I often don't see things until someone else quotes it
and I see it then) and the new one is faster, except that it dies at
arrays larger than 128x128, and starts giving incorrect values. It seems
like just a "short" integer problem, but heck if I can figure out where it
might be in there!!

The times are as follows (I'm not sure they mean anything for incorrect
results, but here they are anyway):

Array size      New (1 line)       Craig (2 line)
512x512         0.493              0.615
1024x1024       2.531              3.039
2048x2048       10.523             12.89
