Based on your speedup here, I'd be willing to bet there is something inside
neotoma that is

* rather easy to optimize
* yields good speedup

Two orders of magnitude is simply so far away in parsing speed (for a
simpler grammar system) that I'm willing to bet you are doing some work you
don't need to do.
