Sorry for not mentioning, I used the "real" time.

The above mentioned (real) times are from an Athlon XP1600+ (1.4 GHz
real frequency). I'm not sure, which RAM is used. It's remote, so I
can't just open it.

Here is the complete time output:
real 1m52.472s
user 1m38.540s
sys  0m13.400s

So it's probably just the processor frequency.

What does the linker mean by "program header"?
