Is there a measurement backing up this claim? I suspect
micro-optimizations of this kind drowns completely along the rather
long way from device, via malloc and loops, to the input core.
Considering the must-be-tested-for-regression risk on top of that,
this patch falls far below what is worth doing, IMHO.
