From: Mike Austin Date: 2006-03-17T04:53:47+09:00 Subject: Efficiency vs. simplicity In passing along event objects down a ui hierarchy, I can either modify the event and pass it along, or create a new event at each level. The first case is efficient, but introduces side effects. In the second case, there is a lot of object creation going on. I was wondering if Ruby uses object recycling internally? If not I guess I could roll my own, or is it really worth it? Thanks, Mike
