Hmm, it's interesting that you mention this, as that is what the
function I'm benchmarking does most of the time: It returns information
about the request object and its attributes, with a few sys & os objects
thrown in for reference. I wanted to test against something text-rich
and dynamic, but somewhat self-contained so I wouldn't be distracted by
external processes and their bottlenecks.

But going back to 3.2.10 hasn't restored the performance I was seeing
earlier, so this may be a nonissue. I'll report back if there are any
changes.
