    Not bad! It sorted in ~15 sec.s on my computer (400mhz) so I increased
it by a factor of 10 and it did it in 195 seconds.

    Takes -way- longer to display the debug info than to do the sort...

    This may be very useful, but not for what I was doing, I finished that
yesterday. It turned out that I spent much longer figuring out the sort than
I would have spent just typing in some "random" numbers...
