To be honest, <br>> everything else would have come as a big surprise to me which is why I <br>> looked at these benchmarks more carefully - the numbers you posted <br>> seemed to indicate that there is a *major* speed advantage in the <br>> microbenchmarks (>40%) and I was simply surprised to see such large numbers.<br><br>I wouldn't expect much of a speed up either (unless the implementation before was really inefficient), and I didn't think that was the point. I thought the point was simply to clean up collections by using traits. I would just expect it to make the number of lines of code to maintain be less (and hopefully get rid of any #shouldNotImplement messages).<br><br /><hr />Hotmail to go?
