 This is another of those curious-but-not-curious-enough-to-test-myself
questions: does this have any noticeable effect on performance? It's not
that I can think of any objections to passing the arguments by value here,
it seems the right thing to do anyhow, but I also hope that any compiler
worth its salt would generate exactly the same code in both cases. So I'm
just curious if you've already checked and whether this was indeed the case
or if this change had any positive effect on the performance too?

 Thanks,
