      From: nospam.Niklas.Lindholm@f420.n201.z2.binkp.net              So what is it that you want to optimize for? Speed? Memory footprint? IO?              You usually optimize something becuase there is an issue identified that you       want to improve.              There's a famous quote by Donald Knuth:        "The real problem is that programmers have spent far too much time worrying        about efficiency in the wrong places and at the wrong times; premature        optimization is the root of all evil (or at least most of it) in        programming."              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
