I'm strongly inclined to think that's more likely an artifact of the
testing method than of the test itself -- have you tried running the
tests in the opposite order?  You also haven't explained your
reasoning for having the string test iterate so many more times than
the array test.  Does it have to do with keeping total run time
similar?

That's entirely to be expected -- all three patches increase speed by
avoiding the work necessary to minimize memory footprint, until (as
you noted in next message) the execution stack is unwound.
