The logic in this code was a big enough change, where I agree it should be kept separate. Unfortunately, it caused a huge performance regression :-(, but at the same time, fixed a correctness issue, which Thomas always says that correctness trumps performance. But the compromise is to add a Fixes tag to the next patch and document why they are separated, but still required to act as "one". I'll add that commentary. -- Steve > > Calling out more clearly how slow things become with this patch is indeed > important. > > > > >> >
