    Did you know?

    Did you know that malloc() is actually faster than the "new" keyword? I think it is something like .01%.

    Just an interesting thought.

    sounds logical!

    because malloc just allocates memory, new also calls the constructor _and_ it watches for exceptions to throw

    but hey - C++ is slower if you compare it with pure C, but C++ is much saver!!
