testf is a numerically intensive program that tests the
accuracy of expf() in a tight loop. User time varies
by ~3 seconds on my lightly loaded 2 GHz core2 duo processor.
I'm fairly certain that the code does not suddenly grow/loose
6 GFLOP of operations.
I know it's a lot to ask but it may be something that you can help
with if you
had the time to triangulate in on the change that did it..
I presume that since you are an "old hand" you can check out sources
at different revisions..
