Not that much. We just have to allocate srcbufs dynamically and krealloc() everytime we want to add a new entry. May I ask why you care that much about this optimization? As I said, if we really have to read all the copies to realize none of them is good, we already lost a lot of time, so having a "suboptimal but generic" version of the bit-wise majority shouldn't hurt that much.
