Sure there are things that can benefit from optimization, but trying to optimize this case doesn't really help anyone. Remember, what is slow here is not the loop itself; it is the casting overhead. However, optimizing casting just isn't going to help unless you have extremely long loops. If you do, then it begs the question why.
