Bill,

I had no idea about this - where can I read about blas vs non-blas?

It would seem that my "default" is neither of your suggested cases - but again, 
no idea what is implied.

I do like the increased speed from the default to the _1 (9!:58)"0 i.3 case. I 
would like to know more about the implications.
