"Premature optimization is the root of all evil."
If struct packing produces a measurable speedup, do it; if not, don't.
But actually take the time to measure it.
I wasn't clear, I guess. I'm not optimizing. I'm looking at code
that already does this through global pack-struct flag for the
compiler, and I needed to get away from that w/o doing a rewrite.
