[wp-hackers] apply_filters, merge_filters and reset()

[Jacob]

You know, for true performance, it would be better to tap into C/C++ and 
just write an PHP extension for this part. Yes, it won't be available to 
the majority of WordPress users, but for those wanting more performance, 
it appears it would be the best choice.

While, those points noted need to be addressed, I'm not certain all of 
them need to be corrected in userland. From what I've seen of several 
benchmarks, call_user_func takes more time than each or next. I think 
Travis setup is what is causing the decrease. When I submit the next 
patch, it won't have the do...while loop change over to foreach nor will 
it "correct" merged_filters.
