I think I've clearly outlined where the real problems are. Moving a pointer _now_ here or there isn't the issue. And re optimizaion again: [0] Well, you would have to prove that there are typically a lot of event code switches and that the related save/resore sequence of current_ ptrs does hurt more than joe average sub call performance penalties your patch imposes, but lets forget that for a while ;) > -- c leo
