Maybe in this case, but the question remains if tfplist is as good as it can be. For TMemoryStream it was not such a big problem because realloc is virtual. > There is no single good and simple catch-all mechanism. So that brings up the question of what is the advantage of still using a percentage with so very large block sizes? I assume less reallocation tries make the chance of reaching a larger blocksize more feasable? _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
