Having been down this path so many times -- any time a benchmark shows
a big improvement, my first reaction is that something has been mis-
compiled.  If not, then I worry that it's just some ugly secondary
cache effect from variables moving around on the stack or something
similar.  Only once I can convince myself that neither of those is the
case do I get excited about the improvement.

Perhaps I've become somewhat jaded through the years :-)
