Well with the caveat that the hint mechanism only works if you are processing the elements in order. Sometimes you're not.

If you need to do a load of processing of values in a dynamic array (e.g. when handling a load of associated fields), it's often quicker to raise it, matparse it into a dimensioned array in which each entry is now @FM delimited and process them there.
