I apparently had some sort of major brain fade when I did this because I
didn't apply your hashing patch when I ran this SIMD test. With it
applied, I see a speedup of ~39%, which makes a whole lot more sense to me.
If I add the Bloom patch (updated with your suggestions), I get another
~73% improvement from there, and a much smaller regression in the role
creation portion.
