I wasn't trying to push it, but I also don't think that a P5 (maybe 
133 MHz, 160 MB of 60ns EDO RAM, 66 MHz bus speed?) is a typical 
choice to play a modern video with VLC. If needed, call it VLC for 
eCS, which implies the use of such a CPU anyway. Just undo the minor 
change if there's no speed gain, and apply the optimization only to 
up-to-date video _players_.

FYI, a 500 MHz Pentium III is hardly capable of playing a downloaded 
typical Youtube-video with KMP with a CPU load trying to exceed 100%. 
People with e.g. FFmpeg/386 still can try to convert and resize such a
HQ video for their 386 video player, and users of VLC/P6 aren't 
wasting their limited number of horses.
