Performance gains of the new C implementation are between 12x and 80x, depending on the application. Congrats Stefan! And thanks for the huge chunk of code.
Seconded. This is the kind of stuff that will make 3.3 the most awesomest 3.x release ever (and hopefully convince people that it does make sense to port)...
cheers, Georg
