Default Interesting performance "black hole"

Hi folks,
the first run takes 2 to 3 seconds, the next
(similar) runs are taking up to 2 minutes. I have no
idea why.
(I do not know how to release the primary
storage after each present run - do not even know
if it has to do with the RAM "storage")

Description:
My VBA-routine checks in a loop for a text-string in about
5000 cells of a certain column. Depending of the sting I search
for, the result is between 50 and 500 hits. From that row, where
I found a similar string, the contents of a few cells is transferred
to a new sheet. That's all. But only the first time it is fast.

My System is: Excel 2000, WinXP,
processor speed 1,5 GHz,
storage 512 MB RAM


Greetings from Germany
