Quoting msg6514:
Representing the canonical heuristic with int indices rather than PDB pointers
might be interesting more generally because it may allow us to avoid hash tables
in some other places, too.
I haven't looked at the code, but I vaguely remember that some PDB-based
configurations were among the ones that suffered more than others when switching
to 64 bits. This is often related to the use of hash tables. (I just tried to
find evidence for PDB heuristics doing poorly with 64 bits, but couldn't find
much, so I may be misremembering this.)
