I haven't had a chance to do the profiling, so I also don't know where the
code is choking. But I'd be surprised if it was the hashing:
long conv_key = strtol(key, &test, 10);
if (key && *key && !*test) // Conversion succeeded
return conv_key;
The hash table uses the number itself as a key if it can, so the only
choke I could see here is if strtol is slow. But it certainly shouldn't be
resorting to linear search.
