[Shootout-list] C# performance

[Laurent Debacker]

Hello!

I have submitted a new C# implementation for the reverse-complement
benchmark. Here are the results:

My Pentium 4B @ 2.7Ghz, Windows XP, Mono 1.1.15

Original: 13.1 sec   Mine: 6.6 sec

My Pentium 4B @ 2.7Ghz, Windows XP, .NET Framework 2.0

Original: 5.2 sec   Mine: 3.8 sec

Shootout, Pentium 4, Gentoo, Mono 1.1.16.1

Original: 9.29 sec   Mine: 11.08 sec

Also from my implementation, I would say that my algorithm is longer
but a bit more efficient. I'm very surprised from the results reported
by shootout. Any idea?
