There shouldn't really be much of a speed difference - the way this is usually handled is you create a hash table with the overloaded functions. If there's a match in the hash table then you process it locally, otherwise you move right on to the builtins. So the only hit you take is in a quick lookup in the hash table. It's a direct lookup, it's either there or it isn't, and it's compiled and optimized. Should actually take less overhead than a scripted function call. I sense an inherent incompatibility between the folks who want more speed out of the basic engine calls (arrays and such) and the folks who want the flexibility of overloading the builtin functions. I fall more in the latter category, but not enough to want things to change (and possibly break existing behavior). -- -Mark Wieder [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
