In my understanding, what I have implemented so far is so simple that it does not affect the speed. These traits are what Partick kindly recommended to get started. As explained on the GSoC page, some traits might involve expensive instantiation of multiple class templates. So IMHO, implementing built-in traits for those traits can make compilation cheaper. I have not measured it, but Patrick might have done?
