I'd say it's a good idea to do it for now.  It the list starts getting
spammed a lot, we can simply change the alias.

Elijah, the ball is on your court now ;)

I did an all-modules query for bugs with the "perf" keyword:

There's a lot of garbage here along the lines of "FooApp uses 100% CPU
while doing something"; some of those are genuine performance bugs, and
others are "just" infinite loops in buggy apps.  Does anyone have a
little time to weed those out?
