Thanks, John. Duly noted. Again, appreciate the wisdom! Without the gory details, I believe any bottle neck here, will have little if any affect on the requirements and design for my particular need, but I'll keep searching for a better alternative.

As a further improvement, I'd use a different object for your singleton, i.e. separate it from the plugin. Finally, do remember that in a multi-threaded model, using a singleton is a bottleneck.
