Thanks for all your replies.
I now know what made the difference (but still can't believe it!!!).
Before I was running with the mains adapter only whereas the battery
was removed. If the battery is inserted and the adapter is connected
the runtime decreases "dramatically" even on my MacBook.
Battery INSERTED:
indexGenerator(0.08,0.15,30,100): 10.242
indexGenerator(0.08,0.15,30,1000): 100.875
Battery REMOVED:
indexGenerator(0.08,0.15,30,100): 19.779
indexGenerator(0.08,0.15,30,1000): 197.375
Would anyone have expected that? Sorry, but me I wouldn't.
Cheers,
Nils

There's nothing special about my code (I guess), but here it is.
I have a 1 year old iMac 2 Ghz. The
indexGenerator(0.08,0.15,30,1000) call takes about 121s in . For
comparison I ran the Windows version under Parallels and it also
takes about 120s.
I think you have a sick MacBook, look for a benchmarking program
(maybe geekBench) and compare against others, or contact your Apple
dealer and see what they suggest.
