Yeah, I guess so. Pretty nasty loop. LOOPBIT will iterate 8*63=504 times and it's going to do silly bit handling on each and every iteration. Given that all it's doing is counting bits, a simple fix would be to loop over bytes, use XOR and count ones. For extreme speedup create a lookup table with 256 entries to give you the answer straight away...
