I like this kind of pissing contest where inferior machine beats the hell
out of "superior" machines.

My web server,
AMD Duron ~ 1Ghz,
while handling all the webstuff, emails, database etc.... for a bit under
100 domains calculated that same thing in :

Surprise..... 131 seconds. (Roughly under 3 minutes.)

I got the same result
length: 903090
time: 131

Except I just used PHP from commandline.
Could the language used really make that much of a difference?
If yes, who would use such a slow language???
