Hello,

well... we iterate there from 0 to 1<<2, which is not awfully
a lot to break it in the middle, and we do this only when we
initialize a new pool (for every size class).

the check is
 - true   15 times
 - false  492 times

so it _sort of_ feels like this new if-condition doesn't
buy us a lot, and most of the time it just sits there with
no particular gain. let's hear from Minchan.
