As noted in the comments this compares the prototype implementation prior to today's "stable" BFS release. Should give some context to the claimed improvements. Will be interesting to see if Ingo re-runs this comparison and publishes the new results.

Note that this comparison is completely obsolete.

Made this more clear in the title. Should still provide some context to the improvements claimed in today's release, and a hard set of numbers to compare the new implementation against.
