First, apologies in advance, as this is a totally non-rigorous
analysis. Plus, I could easily have made some blunders in
compiling it. But I thought it was fun anyway.

Using the Unix 'time' command on the tpr04b leaderboard produced
the following elapsed times in running the test program
(on an otherwise idle Pentium 4 box running Linux).

Based on these results, it might be interesting to send a patch
for the PPT tsort.pl command consisting of Jukka's solution. ;-)

As a semi-serious enhancement request, I would find it enjoyable
if future test programs reported some basic timing information,
and if the post mortem noted this timing information too.
