Not entirely clear to me what change is being proposed here?

In any case, I strongly resist making performance-based changes on
the basis of one test on one kernel and one hardware platform.
We should reproduce the results on a few different machines before
we even think of committing anything.  I'm happy to test on what
I have, although I'd be the first to agree that what I'm checking
is relatively low-end cases.  (Too bad hydra's gone.)
