this last one taking 2 minutes of CPU time, not too bad yet...

in 4 minutes of CPU time, 

so in the morning I can generate more terms if anyone's interested.

By the way, superseeker doesn't say anything useful about this
sequence that I can find (i only tried the first column; I didn't try
the diagonal yet).

PS: I haven't checked my code -- I figure someone out there should at
least check a couple of the small cases by hand or by another computer
algorithm to make sure that the answers agree.  I wouldn't submit this
to OEIS without at least a little more checking.
