FACTS
-----
The old facts for sorting routines are as follows:
Bubble sort ------- slow (3-4 hours for 10'000 items)
Shell Metzner ------- Better (2-3 minutes)
Quick Sort (NEW) ---- Even better (2 minutes)
Mentat Sort ------- The Fastest (1.3 minutes)
So as you can see we're faster.
note- The above tests were not taken from an interpreted
basic but all the routines were first compiled.
note- In interpreted basic the speed will be slower but
ours is still faster.
