I think you and Andy are dead on. Have all the tools in your toolbox, 
and do what the right thing probably is each time. In the probably rare 
case that speed is critical, benchmark each strategy.

I'm sure benchmarking would show wildly different results per strategy 
comparing, for instance, 3 scans of 1M keys vs. 1M scans of 3 keys.
