Thank you for those hints, apparently the Winelib docs that I
looked into were much more out of date :-)

With everything in memory, I get:

  root at kepler ~ # opreport  | grep wine
        192  0.2808 wineserver
         98  0.1433 libwine_unicode.so.1
         82  0.1199 libwine.so.1
  root at kepler ~ # opreport  | grep wtl
         20  0.0293 linuxwtl.exe.so

Wall-clock time is roughly one second (this is a minimal
application). However the CPU time may be much smaller.

On Windows/VMware, I get <0.1 seconds for the same program.
