It is a big change, but we won't find the bugs if people don't use it.
And they won't use it if it's hidden behind a parametric option. I
know this a difficult decision, but because this does not affect
functionality at all, only performance, I'm not sure a parameter is
the right thing to do.

Just my 2ct.
