Changes (by marshall):

  * status:  assigned => closed
  * resolution:  => invalid

Comment:

 Same thing on Windows; the bulk of the time is spent doing the locale-
 aware uppercasing.

 If you want the kind of performance that you get with the other library,
 you should use the same kind of uppercasing as that library
 (`std::tolower`, for example)

 Closing as "not a bug"
