The performance gains by this technique can be immense, especially on
UV (that seems to have a little more overhead than UD in opening
files). Regardless of the platform, the less code executed in each
iteration, the more efficient the program.
Pr1me was apparently especially notorious in this regard ... in fact I
believe that's where the technique came from. If using INFORMATION, this
trick would speed programs up noticeably.
Cheers,
