*
* size_t is a more appropraite choice than uint32_t as the choice is dictated by
* uniqueness in arrays and vectors. These correspond to size_t.
* However, the using size_t with a sizeof == 8 on 64 bit platforms is noticably
* slower. (Limited testing suggests a ~1/16 of running time.)
* (Interestingly, uint_fast32_t also has a sizeof == 8 on x86_64. Filthy Liars!)
