>It's ok to generalize and say that most time is spent in 
non-user-written code, but abuse of that code can also be incredibly damaging.

That has been my point all along!

The bad code does what it does, but it's what it does.

I said 5%, which may be wrong, exagerated, and empirical, but the algorithm is 
key.

And, a bad one in assembler can cost more than the best in COBOL.
