Right. The best you could probably do is note where you found the first AUTOLOAD
so that when you do reach the end of the ISA search you don't need to do
the whole search again.


But is this programming for the common case ? or is it premature
optimization.

I'm thinking premature optimization, and if not that at least something that can be put off until later.
