Er, no, just the code, which is a micro benchmark. I don't doubt that
it's really faster, I just think that in a much larger app, the overhead
of property lookup would be effectively reduced to noise, or less. File
IO, network IO or some much larger data structure would most likely be
the bottleneck in a large app.

Of course it depends on the app. If you have a lot of dynamic
configuration options (DAL properties, remote service addresses, feature
switches, algorithm switches, internationalization, etc.) in a Map then
those few lines of code are worth the coding effort. It's something
that would be more likely on an enterprise web server where shutting
down for adjustments isn't an option.
