it would be an interesting benchmark, timing it on some 100000 runs or
like that, if I'll have some time I promise I'll do it :)

yes, it's true. as for the current thing, I do not have experience or
benchmarks, so you may be right that it does not worth the energy. I

when I'll have some free time (probably not in the next couple of
weeks...) I think I'll try to benchmark it - and we'll see whether the
difference is worth mentioning or not :)

but if anyone has (or you have) existing benchmarks please show me, I'm
interested in it
