Same here. Tried all types of counters and other tricks to no avail. Always
replace for Rebel is also superior.

Like to add that the following worked for Rebel. After killer-one I use
killer-one of 2 plies back, then killer-two and finally killer-two of
2 plies back. This gave a speedup of 5% if I remember well.
