hard to believe... but ..

well, it does so quite a bit longer, e.g., also in R 2.15.0

It's not normal, and I'm pretty sure I have had many many
examples which gave identical results.
Can you provide a reproducible example, please?
If the example is too large [for dput() ], please send me the *.rda
file produced from
save(<your data>, file=<the file I neeed>)
*and* a the exact call to agnes() for your data.
Thank you in advance!
Martin Maechler,
the one you could have e-mailed directly
to using maintainer("cluster") ...
