I don't have much exprince here, but I'd say that 100 is not a large
number.

What exactly are you trying to optimize here? How much time of the call
setup is spent on that lookup? I tend to believe that not much. You
don't have much to save.

Maybe even the mere generation of an external connection will take time
that is comparable with that (don't know, jut tossing out numbers).

Maybe you can also optimize it by grouping common cases to patterns.
