at the yapc::chicago hackathon i hung out with stevan little, one of the
major moosebrains out there. i helped him find a decent optimization of
a slow point. given my basic skimming of code and that module, i suspect
there are plenty of ways to speed up moose. they seem to be focusing on
the functionality first. seems like an interesting idea but i will stick 
to my blessed hashes for a little while longer (like when p6 is in
stable release! :).
