That's realy fast and also means you fill up all memory in 2ms. And
then you have to actually do something with this data.
Years ago I read a chapter on optimisation in the book 'programming
pearls' of Jon Bently. The major message was: look at the big picture,
or you'd optimise the wrong issues. For us, library developers, it's
not possible to anticipate on each application, we can imagine an
average app with our libraries and optimise for efficent resource use
(ram, flash and speed).

Tschüss
Joep
