Of course that's on the single user test only. In the multi-user test
the two are neck-and-neck. If you really want to be concerned, see the
attached. This lines up results from:

REL7_2_STABLE with NAMEDATALEN = 32 and FUNC_MAX_ARGS = 16
7.3devel with NAMEDATALEN = 32 and FUNC_MAX_ARGS = 32
7.3devel with NAMEDATALEN = 128 and FUNC_MAX_ARGS = 32

In the single-user test, REL7_2_STABLE is best by about 10%. But in the
multi-user test (10 users), *both* 7.3devel tests are about 3.5% faster
than 7.2.
