[Biococoa-dev] Optimizations

[Alexander Griekspoor]

This is impressive stuff John, well done! My experience with many of 
the CF classes is a drama, but I might start looking at it as well.
Where speed is a bottleneck, I have absolutely no problem with these 
kind of optimizations in internal implementations. I do propose to add 
some extra lines of comments though, to describe a bit what you do and 
why you choose to use the CF classes there (for poor soles like me ;-)
