Attached as 0001, 0002, 0003, in that order.

0004 is what used to be 0002, it disables caching of "DLL not 
loaded" results.

Agreed, attached as 0005.

0006 was previously known as 0004, removing all caching.

Attached as 0007.

This is now 0008.

Patch topology: master --- 1 .. 5 --- 6 --- 7

Tested with release builds; Core i7-6700K (quad/HT; 4000 MHz).
I did three runs each, and they were always within 0.5 % of each
other's run time.

- patch 1 (now 1-3):         24 μs/iteration (24 s for 1e6)
- patch 1+2+3 (now 1-5 + 8): 29 μs/iteration
- patch 1+2+4 (now 1-7):     30 μs/iteration

I also did a debug build with 1+2+4 that came in at 84 μs/iteration.
