You are right. I am attaching the updated patch which I am re-testing now.

Yes, but one tests only vectorization_factor and other min_profitable_estimate
which probably should be greater than vectorization_factor.

The check above should therefore become redundant.  My reading of the code is
that min_profiltable_estimate is computed after the check above, so it is
probably an useful shortcut and the message is also bit more informative.
I updated the later test to use max_niter variable once it is computed.

OK with those changes assuming testing passes?
