It's really not my place to say, but it seems strange that if an  
optimization is available people would ignore it because they don't think  
it's important enough. I don't understand this mentality; if it's not  
going to break anything and it obviously can improve performance in  
certain use cases, why not merge it and make FreeBSD even better?
