Sounds good.

OK. For anything large, I will want to check with you anyway.

It's an unnecessary optimization. Feel free to ignore it.

Got the idea from a comp.lang.py post:
http://groups.google.com/groups?q=fastest+group:comp.lang.python&hl=en&as_qdr=m&rnum=2&selm=2261322.7AAxBmiTta%40lunix.schabi.de

Looking at the timings in that post again, there's not enough speed
difference (maybe 10%) to warrant it, unless we actually reach a point
where such tiny improvements are worthwhile. I should follow my own
advice and not optimize until it's clearly necessary.
