> This patch is meant to reduce the complexity of the search function used for

> searching from bottom to top.  I reordered it to search from top to bottom.  In
> addition I pulled an AND statement out of the loop and instead replaced it with
> an OR statement outside the loop.  This should help to reduce the overall size
