That is one possibility. It could also be that libGap gets compiled with
different optimization settings and/or that the memory manager underneath
is different and affects execution. It could really be worthwhile if
someone knowledgeable about libGap would run some of these examples
through a profiler (gperftool perhaps?) and compare the execution profiles
between Gap and libGap.
