Does this include the GC at the end of it all? Because if that happens after the end timestamp it's not an exact comparison. I read something once about speeding up a C/C++ compiler by simply turning free into a no-op. Such a compiler basically allocates more and more data and only frees it all at the end of execution, so then doing all the free calls is just wasted CPU cycles.
