I know, it's just a probe to see what kind of a speedup could be
obtained by not having that getter's interference. You know... simply
implementing InstrumentedAttribute in C could do the trick...

Oh, it's just application-specific regexes. The point was that there's
a lot of application-specific processing, so the speedup must be big
to be observable through the interference.
