Apologies for my confusing measurements: In bm blocks, `report' should
be used after enlarging *enough* the process size by allocations.  As
Guy said [ruby-talk:8168], it is the reason why the results looked to
be order-sensitive.

I'm willing to add proviso about this point to README of Benchmark.
Or should I prepare another method to easier setup and free us from
putting GC.start?

thanks,
