I was curious why this triples the page generation time of the default CI install.

"Page rendered in 0.0953 seconds" vs "Page rendered in 0.2754 seconds"

I think that this starts to border on making this library not worth it... :/ I've used this for several different projects that I've toyed with, but now that I'm actually developing an application for somebody I don't want to use this if it's going to affect performance so greatly.

I'm curious, are there any optimizations that can be made for specific setups? As in maybe optimizing the "find()" function for my own conventions. IE not actually having it search at all, but know the exact location based on my conventions.
