sad to hear, it seemed we were looking a significant speed increase for
ruby in this area. but perhaps optimizations will still do it.

recently someone pointed out to me that Arrays were an order of
magnitude slower then Hashes. that suprised me. has any of this work
sparked notions on how to bring Array more upto speed with Hash? That,
at least, would be a nice boost. just some thoughts.
