 Someone might want to verify that it actually improves efficiency.

True enough.  But then again, I really wish the same kind of
optimization can be employed for undo.  M-x query-replace is
*horribly* slow with large files (even on very fast machines), and I
think much of that slowness comes from repetitive small undo records.
