in fact it is quite close to my version from earlier today, the version
at the url Sebastian pointed out had a speedup (from 55 to 35 mins) by
such trivial changes as replacing //person by /cemetery/stone/person
which is more to type but constrains the search rather more.
Times as relayed by Sebastian, I haven't tried running any version on
his full dataset (and I'm not interested enough in the dead to wait
half an hour to see them sorted:-)
