Perhaps I'm overly cautious, but as LANG-990 is a performance tweak
and not a bug fix, I'd prefer to see it subjected to some minimal
performance testing before we include it. Although I agree the
improvements seem fairly self-evident to the eye. I was intending to
take the lead on that testing, but sadly I've not found time yet to
tackle it.

I would propose you cut the release without LANG-990, unless someone
has time to put some metrics together. I suggested the patch author
might do this to speed up the commit process [1], but so far he's not
taken up the challenge.
