Let's see what happens if I change the firewall settings a little....

polycarb:test alan$ ./testStack Performing 10000 runs.
10000 registrations peformed in 3489 ms, a rate of 2866.15

polycarb:test alan$ ./testStack --num-runs=100000Performing 100000 runs.
100000 registrations peformed in 32582 ms, a rate of 3069.18  
transactions per second.]
Note: this test runs both sides (client and server)
polycarb:test alan$

Roughly the same...
Firewall set to 'only allow certain applications'.
I was prompted to permit 'testStack' to access the network when  
starting ...
...
Firewall:
     Firewall Settings:
       Mode: Limit incoming connections to specific services and  
applications

So, no, I don't seem to have a performance problem ...
Odd.
