>>Never one time have I have had any performance issues in software that could've been improved by using mDot.
The plural of anecdote is not data. It's easily measurable in tight loops with busy cursors. From memory there's some examples here or in the Fox Wiki.
>>VFP is so fast that it's a non-issue. Our biggest need for speedups is a faster network.
VFP's IL is too slow for some purposes without lots of help from Chen or creators of flls. Every little helps.
>>It's not like having seatbelt. No lives are at stake.
You're willfully misconstruing the metaphor. It's tomorrow morning here and I'm late for an arrangement, so need to rush. Peace.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
