I'm curious.

Maybe I'm out of my depth, pun not intended, but I was under the impression
that thrown exceptions have to unwind the stack anyway.  Is there some way
exceptions are usually implemented that doesn't cost as much as unwinding
the stack one level at a time?  It seems like 3-or-300 does matter, in that
you have to check for and possibly call some number of destructors or risk
leaking all over the place.

This is a fantastic discussion and I'm happy to see it here.
