Notice that you never said anything about what you wanted to achieve with
this entire series?  " -- the easiest part." does not mean anything.
The easiest part of what?

Where in the series do the "faster" and "improved" come from?  What do you
exactly mean by "faster" and "improved"?  In which commit would we find
the answers to the questions like:

 - What operation was slow and how you tackled that slowness?
 - What are the benchmark results?

In general, "improve" is such a loaded word (after all, patches sent to
the list are almost always meant to "improve" things) that it almost does
not convey a single bit of information.  Are you fixing bugs?  Are you
tidying up an unreadable piece of code?  Are you fixing styles?  Are you
producing prettier output?  Are you refactoring cut-and-pasted repetition
into a common helper function?  Are you adding a new feature?
