Finally, here is the results....

At normal speed (no sleep between CreateGUID calls:

graemeg at graemeg:index_performance$ ./index_performance.elf
Duplicate value detected: {7D8EB078-7FD2-8EED-1D39-B5E4F17766FD}
  List.Count = 1021


... And here I have a sleep(700) between CreateGUID calls... As you
can see, I managed to get two extra GUID's in my list before it hits a
duplicate.


graemeg at graemeg:index_performance$ ./index_performance.elf
Duplicate value detected: {486D85FC-DC44-5180-A60D-3E47D00709A4}
  List.Count = 1023
