Hi, I´ve purchased the plugin lcTasklist a long time ago and used it now and then. But now i am totally in love with this great tool. I was working on a really big project for months and i needed to add some debug code, special comments and special information in my scripts and i had to mark

While this test may be valuable in comparing different versions of LC, I'm not sure how useful the data is by itself. I decided to run a test and see what happened. I defined 6 constants. kA-kE for the size of each loop. kF for the last line in tvar/element in the array. To initialize, I just m

I made a test with the same loops and the same data on LC 6.5.2 desktop Mac, and arrays run 20% faster than items... On LC9 server I get opposite results : items are 2 times faster then arrays. As said in my original post, AFAIR U have always used arrays instead of items & lines because it has alw

Re: Surprise...

Not really a huge surprise ... access to chunks such as 'item' and 'line' are (potentially) slow when you are searching relatively large strings. So the archetypal example repeat with i = 1 to N    get line i of tBigString end repeat can get slow if N is large, because of repeatedly scanning o

Re: Surprise...

Hi. Not sure the code snippet you supplied is complete. There are no variables "T" or "tVar", and so all your nested repeat loops are just time expenders. In other words, you could have just: repeat 100 That said, it seems that assembling the nonexistent array variable repeatedly is slower t
