Sorry, I can't agree with you. In the world of optimization, there is
no minimal or maximal optimization--there is only onething, it's
optimization. Consider a situation/expression in which you can improve
the speed to 0.000001 second--and consider the same in 1000000 loop.
So, IMHO, definitely it is worth to optimize, even it is less than a
nano second thing.
