----------------------------------------
It looks like there is a performance issue with Hash#fetch compared to Hash#[]. I found this issue via this gist: https://gist.github.com/jonleighton/3552829. I could not find it reported anywhere on the tracker, forgive me if this is a known issue:

```
require 'benchmark/ips'
 
h = { foo: :bar }
 
Benchmark.ips do |r|
  r.report('#[]')    { h[:foo] }
  r.report('#fetch') { h.fetch(:foo) }
end

Calculating -------------------------------------
                 #[]    124893 i/100ms
              #fetch    121729 i/100ms
-------------------------------------------------
                 #[]  6917857.4 (賊20.4%) i/s -   32472180 in   5.008832s
              #fetch  4570251.5 (賊18.8%) i/s -   22032949 in   5.015712s
```

This is in Ruby 2.1.2
