oh, of course you are correct.  it's just so easy to do in ruby that i
actually do it.  in c++ i usually find that i will take alot of restructuring
just to speed things up a little - and so it's not worth it.  my point was
just that it's suprising, to me at least, how fast ruby can be if you take a
little time to profile and that i generally can make something run 'fast
enough' by doing this.
