/* When converting bytes from/to chars, we look through the list of
   markers to try and find a good starting point (since markers keep
   track of both bytepos and charpos at the same time).
   But if there are many markers, it can take too much time to find a "good"
   marker from which to start.  Worse yet: if it takes a long time and we end
   up finding a nearby markers, we won't add a new marker to cache this
   result, so next time around we'll have to go through this same long list
   to (re)find this best marker.  So the further down the list of
   markers we go, the less demanding we are w.r.t what is a good marker.

   The previous code used INITIAL=50 and INCREMENT=0 and this lead to
   really poor performance when there are many markers.
   I haven't tried to tweak INITIAL, but experiments on my trusty Thinkpad
   T61 using various artificial test cases seem to suggest that INCREMENT=50
   might be "the best compromise": it significantly improved the
   worst case and it was rarely slower and never by much.

   The asymptotic behavior is still poor, tho, so in largish buffers with many
   overlays (e.g. 300KB and 30K overlays), it can still be a bottleneck.  */
