Hi Claude,

Anyway, some general optimisation points, not all directly related to the parallel part of the problem:
Thank you so much for taking the time to implement your own version, and to explain everything you did. Your slowest sequential version is about 3 times faster than my fastest parallel version, I'm really impressed :-) Thank you also for the general coding tips, I'll definitely do some cleanup with a defaultMain or similar. I am busy looking at your implementation together with the optimisation points you mentioned. There is a lot for me to absorb, and I'll probably learn more from comparing your code (and the thinking behind it) with mine than I would have just reading a book or an article. Is there a field in computer science similar to comparative literature? Because I find comparing different implementations of the same program very useful as a learning tool.
