Yes, I agree that most cases doesn't suffer this. Anyway since I don't have enough knowlege required to roughly estimate the impact nor concrete expample where the planning time increases significantly, I don't assert any more on this point. > I'd say if you can come up with a test case where you can measure the > impact of this, then let's discuss more.
