Really?

My observations are all based on today's experience with alpha6. :-)

Ah, that's sensible.

Yes, that's what I guessed. But at least when I tested replacing
sequence with eduction at exactly these places () the result has been a
slight slowdown instead of a speedup. But that might have been
accidental as it is hard to do measurements with real-world code where a
5% slowdown/speedup might be the reason of something completely
unrelated.
