Absolutely phenomenal job, guys!  This is just amazing work in such
short time!!

I'd be interested to know if any benchmarks (or something similar)
have been done comparing the old and new way.  We say that it has
improved performance and reduced memory -- but is there numbers to
back that up?  It will also be interesting to see examples of "old"
code vs "new" code..
