+Comments on the patch:
+
+I removed the extranuous checks in the overloaded versions of 
+BinarySearch.  They speed up the case where there is an error in the 
+arguments (by avoiding the overloaded method call) but they slow 
+down the case where the arguments are valid.  Having valid arguments 
+is the most likely path so it would be faster to remove the extra 
+checks.
+
+Having the extra checks also makes it a pain to debug code because 
+it is duplicated code.
