Questions like this are why I would really like to see "blind them with 
(computer) science" synopses of the kinds of optimisations.

But note: It's not working with the source code.

Does ABO have its best-case improvement on certain worst-case input, such
as where it can reduce operator strength, move redundant code outside
loops, or remove otiose statements?  (What are best-case candidates?)

(It might be hardly productive to optimize code that should never have 
been
written in the first place.)
