Comment (by simonpj):

 Re comment:83

 1. I think that `InterestingVarFun` is `const True`, so it only adds
 overhead.

 2. I think you mean that `NDFV` keeps a set of forall-bound variables, and
 checks in that set before adding to the accumulator.   But foralls are
 rare (I think), so the set will typically be empty.

 3.  That leaves the accumulator-style as the main candidate.

 As Richard says, though, the way to find out is to try it one thing at a
 time.
