Previously, we'd iterate an entry array from start to end every time we added an entry offset to it. To speed up this operation, we cache the last entry array in the chain and how many items it contains. This allows the addition of an entry to the chain to be done in constant time instead of linear time as we don't have to iterate the entire chain anymore every time we add an entry.
