Re: Dynamically allocated tables and %DEALLOC

But how expensive is it *really*?  I am wondering if it is one of those
things where hardware has progressed to the point where it isn't as
noticeable anymore.  Note I am not saying don't program for efficiencies,
but I do think about programmer debugging cryptic issues vs. taking certain
defaults to gard ones self.

Has somebody done some performance tests on this so we have more concrete
data?
