I've been looking a fair bit at some of the utility routines, like find_layout, and they are not optimized, to put it kindly. So code that calls them can be surprisingly slow. I'm going to try to optimize some of them, but it would be really useful to have a test framework before attempting that. Otherwise, it is too likely I break something. For now, any code that looks like it might be slow should probably avoid calling library routines as much as possible. This is the second recent bite of this kind. Riki
