  Thanks.

  That seems like a very good plan. I just sent the fixes. Hopefully
this should fix major issues right now.

  Interestingly enough, benchmarking for runs with different shells as
/bin/sh show:

  dash: 1.63s user 3.93s system 102% cpu 5.436 total
  posh: 2.02s user 4.29s system 100% cpu 6.260 total
  bash: 2.82s user 5.78s system 104% cpu 8.223 total
  zsh:  3.70s user 5.86s system  99% cpu 9.626 total

  (this is obviously completely not unreliable, but gives some rough
ideas though)
