if iam not mistaken
Accessing symbols accross libs cannot avoid indirection easily.
within a lib one can point to the table directly
so depending on platform this should be slower with shared libs

(this is all of course not strictly unavoidable, it could be done
 differently but its the way it works on linux if i dont misremember)
