Can I ask if you have a particular application for which the existing
implementation is too slow?  There definitely times when I care how fast
my own code runs.  Most of the time though, I don't care, in the sense
that it's already fast enough when done in a dumb and not-so-efficient
way, that I wouldn't gain any practical benefit by working to speed it
up more.
