[Nauty-list] generating some graphs

Hi, 

I think it is just being slow, but I'll check.  The difference between
the two computers is probably just different i/o buffer size.

In any case, for bipartite graphs with known partition it is much
faster to use genbg:

  % genbg -cu -d3:4 -D3:4 12 9
  >A genbg n=12+9 e=36:36 d=3:4 D=3:4 c
  >Z 22651 graphs generated in 11.21 sec

Brendan.
