Awating results...(Core2 Duo @1.73Ghz)

34 second for 1M.

Oddly enough I watched task manager and while it was running the programme was using a steady 50% processor usage all the time...


That's because the program is single-threaded, hence it only uses one of the cores in your Core2 Duo CPU. Windows then shows 50%, which means half of the total processing power is being used.
