    Make less specific claims about the running time for matches. · 15c11469

    The complexity analysis can be highly nuanced. Sets with many strings
    and/or long strings can in fact require more time for matching due
    to locality effects, which depends highly on usage patterns. Prefix
    matches can be longer for large sets since the depth of branching
    in the trie becomes larger.
    
    But these are considerations at the level of micro-optimization.
    It's the difference between two- or three-digit nanosecond mean
    times for the matches.
    
    So it suffices to claim that matching is fast and scales well.
