I did a couple of regenerate_caches runs and this does go a bit faster
on my laptop (~9m30 before vs ~8m30 after). The utf8::utf8(utf8 const &)
constructor jumps up in the profiles I have from oprofile from .007% to
2.6% if I'm reading things right.

I'll try a few initial pull runs and let you know how they go as well.
