As a side-note to what I said in my other email, the sinful thing here
is not this optimization (my patch 2/4). It's _defaulting_ the
optimization to on (my patch 3/4). With just 2/4, it's something that a
user can enable to get better speed if they feel confident there is no
large skew in their repo.
