  That's an impressively precise measurement.  Tell me, where do you find an
O(10^32)Hz timebase?

2,8514851485148514851485148514851 = 288 / 101 = 2 + 86/101

The rest is probably WinCalc... :-)

This comes pretty close to e, however.  Coincidence? ;-)

Must've taken some serious tweaking to get even that close.  Hats off,
everyone!

I just calculated this value using the two (rounded) /bin/time results
(288.08 sec. vs. 101.69 sec.)  Correct rounding would have resulted in
just 2.8235294117647058823529411764706 which is lesser than 2.85+. In
fact the result is more exact without rounding the ms, so the ultimate
result is approximately 2.8329235913069131674697610384502 times faster;)
