I have here the following result with your code (in average). There is a "contains"-repeat and a "is in"-repeat. If I use one as first and the other as second repeat loop I get that the one that is called first is a little bit faster ... Isn't it that deep in the stomach of LC both use the same offset(substring, string) routine?
