Yes, but I think this is a place where you are doing early optimization at the expense of usability. You can always do the slice-thinguie yourself if you are that needed for speed that you can't afford an extra indirection when using an array (which will be the only overhead if T[new] were implemented as a pure reference type). I think the cost here in terms of usability if far higher than the little performance you loose, specially when you can overcome the issue for those weird cases where you need it. -- Leandro Lucarella (AKA luca) http://llucax.com.ar/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- GPG Key: 5F5A8D05 (F8CD F9A7 BF00 5431 4145 104C 949E BFB6 5F5A 8D05) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Pa' ella cociné, pa' ella lavé, pa' ella soñe Paella completa, $2,50 Pero, la luz mala me tira, y yo? yo soy ligero pa'l trote La luz buena, está en el monte, allá voy, al horizonte
