That's a very nice "rescue" of the Ordering@Ordering solution.
Here's a test with (probably) no repeated elements, however, that shows treat ahead. Perhaps there's an intermediate situation where carl wins, or it matters whether the data is integer or real?
data=Table[Random[],{10^6}];
Timing[one=treat@data;]
Timing[three=carl@data;]
one==three
{10.109 Second,Null}
{15.938 Second,Null}
True
