Any performance regression PR is a blanket excuse for optimizations.
We shouldn't need much excuse for optimizations.
Anyway, 2.95 was no speed demon, so we shouldn't consider our work

regression PRs open, and keep using them until we are satisfied that
the performance is not just tolerable, but admirable.
