-# Optimize.
+# Optimizing for size also mean less resident memory usage on the part
+# of Perl. Apple asserts that this is a more important optimization than
+# saving on CPU cycles. Given that memory speed has not increased at
+# pace with CPU speed over time (on any platform), this is probably a
+# reasonable assertion.
