These numbers are kind of irrelevant to me since I'll be using whatever
was shipped in Centos for many more years in the large number of
machines where I care about the time it takes to do things. Building
something from source to see if I can save a couple of seconds on my one
fedora box doesn't sound very productive.

I'll appreciate that when it makes it to Centos.
