Keep in mind this famous quote:

"We should forget about small efficiencies, say about 97% of the time;
premature optimization is the root of all evil." - Donald E. Knuth


POV-Ray is only 15 years old, many of its features are even younger.  We
should really not start to optimize for the little things before all the
code has been cleaned up.
