> storing and retrieving a map of HTTP headers.

I dont have the profiling data for this, so this is pure theoretical speculation. At the time you're shoving http headers, which is dynamic data that will have to be read at runtime, into a heap allocated datastructures inside the request handling. It kinda feel like doing a little xor on your characters is a trivial computation.

I don't envision this making any meaningful difference to those HTTP handlers, because they were written without regard for perfomance in the first place.
