I guess I assumed that creating a local variable with every execute had some overhead as well, which is why I made it an ivar. What you're saying makes much more sense. This is why I thought it would be ugly and clunky to set the port properties to other variables at the start of the execute - because I thought I'd have to create ivars for each of those "cached" port properties....
