I am usually very careful about maintaining performance in my area(s)
(VM and sometimes VFS) code.  I have some private benchmarks and use
public benchmarks to verify performance.  I think that BDE and PHK both
are very careful also.  Any time a new benchmark comes across the mailing
lists, we usually grab onto them :-).
