Whoa--hold on. A millisecond is 1/1000 of a second, no? Comes from the
Latin word for 1,000. A microsecond is a millionth of a second. Methinks
you may be standing on your head ;-)
Regardless of the absolute speed, what I was showing was a percentage
difference. And, of course, your example of calculating pi is even more on
the mark.
Cordially,
