Review Comment:
   I'm not really sure what circumstances could trigger this. It's probably not 
worth logging higher than debug, since this is really an internal performance 
optimization, and not a scenario the user really needs to concern themselves 
with unless they're trying to eek out every nanosecond of performance, in which 
case they can just look at the debug logs.
