That's what I inferred too, and that's why I supposed the autorelease pool pokes directly somehow in retain counts to rise performance, but it may be, as you say, some optimizing behavior at runtime. Ok, forget it. Extremely interesting, but I feel this thread is, as we say in French, a sea snake: we might never see its end. Good night and thanks again!
