I thought I would include some timing numbers here, since I collected 
them...  Carbon.h is kinda like saying X11.h, but it has more in it, 
around 82-84k lines total.  You can think of the 142x faster number as 
an upper bound on the speedups obtainable from the technology.  In a 
real application, the number is closer to 2x over PCH for a cold build.
