I recently made a number of improvements that will be in 4.7.0; see PR 48481.
It certainly would be possible to do more optimization:
1) Once we have seen a valid exact match, quickly disqualify any later
candidates that are not.
2) Try to find that exact match faster with a hash or splay tree lookup.
#2 would only be useful for large overload sets, but #1 could be a minor
optimization for all code.
