I'm mainly curious how much effort it's worth expending on optimizing
that hash.  If it turns out that even the current linear search isn't
that expensive, then that's an argument against doing any more
optimizing (beyond just fixing the current obvious problem).

So maybe playing with oprofile or something would help answer my
question.
