Wow, that's pretty impressive especially with no code changes! Thanks for the breakdown and for sharing!


You're welcome. Much of the speed bump in 7 came from reworking internal memory usage and allocation. A pointer for an array entry used to be 128 bytes - each array entry had a 128 byte overhead. It was reworked and refactored down to... 42? or 44? You can probably imagine the impact that might have on memory allocation.
