Probably not. Then again, wasting a puny 32 bytes vs. the time it takes to do one or two extra realloc+copy operations when opening that many files? > I'd have started at 8 and had not doubled but += 16 fwiw. I can certainly start at a smaller value like 8 or 16, but I'd like to keep the multiplicative increase in order to get O(log(N)) reallocs+copys rather than O(N) when increasing the size. -- Janne Blomqvist
