Why try to speed up something that you don't know is
responsible for your speed problems? Even more, why
try to speed up something if you don't know you HAVE
speed problems?
More computing sins are committed in the name of efficiency (without necessarily achieving it) than for any other single reason -- including blind stupidity.
