I'm not so sure about your 20/15 comparison. In mine I was doing an 
append of a get, in effect, which for a six element list is 12 
operations. In yours you're doing a get, then a set of another get, 
followed by another set. You do that for half the list amount, but it 
still totals 12 operations.
