I feel quite reluctant calculating the number, because the evidence I got
from run-times was quite convincing.  Instead, I will find the places in
the code where danger of returning the same tile twice still exists and
minimize such danger.

I tried the script (minor edited), the results of the runs are attached.
In one of the corrected runs the time is quite high but I think it is due
to the system doing something at the time.

The difference in time is smaller than in my previous results because you
set endyear to 500AD and I did it to 1800AD.  Also in my previous runs I
used three different seeds:
(rand)seed = 42, 43, 44

What exactly gives you constant user times?
