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?
