#84023 - Efficiency
Responding to: ???'s previous message

I think it is wrong to assume just because you code is smaller that it is faster - your boss's code may have unrolled loops etc to increase the execution performance. He may have also understood the problem better and was able to implement 'shortcuts' or educated assumptions - this may require more code but faster in execution. Efficiency is a two edged sword.
