Well, before I do that, I took a shortcut - I just ran the search a
second time. If the hybridization was taking time, then the second
search should be much faster. In fact, it took almost exactly the same
time. (Now it may be that the assignment is still taking place behind
the scenes with a copy of the molecule or something - I might check
this out).

The second point to make is that Tim's implementation is not optimal
for substructure searching, but for isomorphisms (if I understood Tim
correctly). We expect Vflib to do better than Nauty for substructures.
