I do agree with you that too many people worry too much about saving
a microsecond here and there (spending a megasecond to save a
microsecond), but I also think that we cannot just squander CPU cycles.
Our machines are 100 times as fast now, but we also try to do a 100
times as much, so we still have to think about efficiency. Or rather,
we COULD do a 100 times as much if we didn't squander the CPU
on bloat.
