Agreed.

Were those with --use-local-vars enabled? Some benchmarking I have been doing
on my laptop indicates that we should enable --use-local-vars at the default
optimization level; its cost in compilation time is cheap compared to the speed
improvement it generates.

Those would be interesting results.
