Add enough runs and nimcr + gcc should also win. Only the first run takes a 
long time with your command, so more runs brings down the average. The other 
commands aren't so favored.

Of `nim r`, consider:
    
    
    $ head -1 /dev/urandom|wc -m > changing-file
    $ nim r check.nim
    157
    $ head -1 /dev/urandom|wc -m > changing-file
    $ nim r check.nim
    66
    
    
    Run

vs.
    
    
    $ ./check.nim
    66
    $ head -1 /dev/urandom|wc -m > changing-file
    $ ./check.nim
    66
    
    
    Run

`nim r` saves you from running the C compiler. `nimcr` saves you, also, from 
running the Nim compiler.
