Can anyone suggest a way to make this workaround useful within the DynAPI? Maybe as a behavior which can be turned on or off, and perhaps some conditional parameters to guess when there's not too much content, otherwise skip this if there's too much? Benchmarks might be useful for a performance impact analysis. Maybe get some data points and generate a graph to better illustrate in documentation the implications of using this option.
