[IronPython] Sin and Sqrt performance

IP doesn't do much better than CPython when using math.sin and
math.sqrt.  However, same test in C# dominates (10ms.. as opposed to
upwards of 5 seconds in IP or CPy).  Am I missing something here?

Thanks,

import time
from math import *

def do_timing(f, reps):
    start = time.time()
    f(reps)
    end = time.time()
    print "%s (%d reps): %f" % (f.__name__, reps, end-start)


def py_fpfunc_test(reps):
    j = 0.0
    for i in range(0, reps):
        j += sin( j )
        j += sqrt( j )
        j +=2.72392032032;
    print j

def do_all_timing():
    do_timing(py_fpfunc_test, 5000000)

do_all_timing()
print ""
