For sets with <= 32 elements it should behave the same if I remember correctly (I don't know right now though whether it would be 64 elements on 64-bit platforms though). With more elements there will be a penalty as then helper routines are needed. You cam check this by compiling with -al and comparing the assembler code. :) > > While we are on the topic of Sets.
