I don't think it will make a noticable difference. It is right that also
the break-in code will have to re-run in the endgame, but that should
not be noticeable due to caching. I measured a 10% gain in the very late
endgame for arend_3_23.2a, where we are very fast anyway. So probably
not noticeable for a complete game. Hence I concluded that it was not
worth rushing it in for the 3.4 release at the time.
