Why on earth do you use 1000000 instead of a power of 2 !? using decimal
multiplication or division are, sorry to say, very stupid and very slow even
with integer. Just use a 16.16 fixed point integer, so you can replace
*1000000 and /1000000 by <<16 (i.e, *65536) and >>16 (i.e, /65536) would
dramastically speedup your calculations.
