I'm wondering how that could possibly be a fair summary of:

 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=113040

which is the bug in bugzilla. Yes, we haven't had the opportunity
yet to implement that optimization, but I don't even see any
mention of benchmarks in that bug. (Other places I've certainly mention
how important benchmarks are to doing performance work, but...)
