I just checked really quickly, and on my machine (a year-plus old laptop)
That is probably many times faster, and can probably be much more

MB RAM.
Did I imply it's slow? I just listed approximate hardware so that the
times can be placed in some sort of context.
that said, note that on a mobile device with 128 MB of RAM the RAM is a
lot more likely to be a problem than the CPU in some ways. Running out
of memory is strictly worse than being a little bit slower. So a lookup
table may be more of a loss than a win, depending.
