This just performed with:
::* the   newer   REXX version 1   using a ''stemmed array'' instead of a ''char string''
::* the updated REXX version 2   using   '''s=space(s)'''
::* using an appropriate values of repetitions to elongate the elapsed time
::* using modified programs to suppress the writing/display of the output
::* bypassing the timing of the reading of the input file
::* using many trials and variations (under Windows/XP)
::* using the REXX Regina 3.7 interpreter
::* using my coal-fired steam-driven Frankenbox   (built last century)
the timings are:
:::::* REXX version 1     2.49 seconds
:::::* REXX version 2     2.45 seconds
