For shortish strings, yours is faster. For longish strings, mine is
much faster. For intermediate strings, it probably depends on the
number of "1" bits in the binary integer representation of the length.


Define 'longish'.
Where do the (char count by time) lines cross for the two approaches?

Now that certainly will be implementation-dependent. Test it yourself,
it's easy enough. For my purpose, I only tried a few sizes.


Where in your testing did the lines cross? I won't hold you to them honest
I'd just like to know what your results are in your testing.
