Hm, this is what I wanted to know. I think by rewriting EnumMeta in C we can
reduce the creation time of an Enum class
(almost) down to the creation time of a normal class, which may be a 4-5x
speed-up. What do you think?
Someone else would have to take that on (a C version of EnumMeta) -- my C skills are not up to that task and I do not
currently possess the time to get them there.
