Ack, ack.

There's another easy 5% or so for the built-in object walker: once we've
created the hash from the name, the name isn't interesting any more, and
so something trivial like this can help a bit.

Does it matter? Probably not on its own. But a few more memory saving
tricks and it might all make a difference.
