If that's the case then does it really make sense to make this change..?

While having the patch is handy, I'm not seeing any performance numbers
on this version, and I imagine others watching this thread are also
wondering about things like a test run that just uses the specialized
qsort_itemIds() without the bucketsort.

Are you planning to post some updated numbers and/or an updated test
case that hopefully shows best/worst case with this change?  Would be
good to get that on a couple of platforms too, if possible, since we've
seen that the original benchmarks weren't able to be consistently
repeated across different platforms.  Without someone doing that
leg-work, this doesn't seem like it'll be moving forward.

Marking as Waiting on Author.

Thanks!

Stephen
