Too close to tell it apart speed wise, since ther eis a lot of variability. So 
looks like calling ->lower() per char costs about the same as the new string 
creation. Note that I only timed the ::parse related parts, and not anything 
else.

(Ponders patching Qt lower to add some sort of a "lower!()")
