Out of curiosity, did you measure the performance impact of these
changes? If so, it would be nice to include this in the commit log.

Just a few minor terminology suggestions below

Since "different" is an adjective, it sounds strange as a plural. I'd
suggest dropping the 's'. Or maybe changing to "any_different".

Same as previous comment.
