How much memory do you have on that platform ? How much more memory is
going to be used by the implementation ?

It may not be the case in this particular instance but I find it funny
when people complain about something that will use a few hundred more
bytes, maybe one or two k more, on machines that have hundreds of MB of
RAM at the expense of code flexibility, reusability and
maintainability :-)
 
Cheers,
Ben.
