+h2. Fast backend
+
+This fork includes a @Fast@ backend that optimizes for the most common lookups and makes them about 20x (for @t(:'foo.bar.baz')@) or 6x (for @t(:'foo.bar.baz', :a=>'A', :b=>'B')@) times faster than the original @Simple@ backend. The @Fast@ backend is slightly less memory efficient and is slower to @reload!@, but should be a great choice for production environment.
+
