Hi,

Sorry to wake up an old thread.

Out of curiosity, I would like to know if digging further into this
issue is still on your TODO list. I feel understanding exactly what was
wrong in 83c9031 would be interesting ; having just the revert is a bit
frustrating.

The initial optimization in 83c9031 seemed right at first glance, so
I would be interesting in having a more final answer to this.


Many thanks in advance,
