I still refuse to believe that a 1.8GHz Pentium4 can only checksum

If the checksumming is not the problem, the copying is, which would be a
weakness of your hardware. The function profiled does both the copying and
the checksumming.

Yep, its not so much the checksumming as the fact that this is
done over each byte of data and copied.
