Thank you very much for the valuable tests, I've already started to 
refactor this part but it will take some time and still it doesn't 
garantize that the performance will be the same as GNU's with this 
change. It may need more investigation, so I'm also already testing my 
patch to change the default and we'll see how the performance 
improvement progresses.
