I'm not enthusiastic about this patch, but I think it's really helpful
that you've done this work.  A concrete patch, albeit incomplete, and
some real performance measurements improves the quality of discussion
on this issue.

Did you post the lookup-speed.py script in an earlier message?  I
don't think I know what exactly you are measuring.
