I ran the same test as previously, this time using wsprd_exe built from 
your code in r5668.  Here's my table from before, with the new results 
added as line 7:

     Decodes Time1  AvgTime    Improvement   Decoder
               (s)    (s)    Decodes  Speed
----------------------------------------------------------------
1.  1451   2111     5.5     1.00    1.00   baseline
2.  1693   1599     4.1     1.17    1.32   wspr4
3.  2208    335     0.9     1.52    6.30   WSJT-X v1.6.0 r5636
4.  2464    413     1.1     1.70    5.11   partial coherence
5.  2567    431     1.1     1.77    4.90   full coherence
6.  2839   2136     5.5     1.96    0.99   more candidates
7.  2570    428     1.1     1.77    4.93   r5668

On this batch of files (all 20 meters, many decodable signals per file) 
the results are nearly the same as those of my Run#5 ("subtraction with 
full coherence and test for local maxima").  Slightly faster, slightly 
more decodes.
