Since when is recursion considered zippy? (easy maybe). But, in my
experience, if you can write something non recursive to to the same
task, it is usually faster than recursion. With recursion, you
always have the possibility of exausting system resources... thus
adding to the possible non-zippy-ness.
Just my $0.02.
