Another option might be to be lazy on updating parent contexts. I'm thinking something like keep a boolean (or make a
sizeof 0 magic) that indicates whether a context has up-to-date info from it's children or not. That would allow you to
onlyupdate the complete size when you need it, but if your children haven't been touched since the last time you
calculatedthen you're don't need to recalc.
