thanks alot…

In all honesty, does it really matter which one is a millionth of a millisecond faster than the other? In 99.99…% of the code cases this will never be a bottleneck (atleast I have never seen it pop up as one), I can only see it being one if your program needs to compare 2 huge data sets with one another for similarities and i’m pretty doubtful of it being that even in that scenario, so why do you need to know this?

Also hippocoder did nicely respond to your Q of “which is better”.
