[REBOL] Essay on Associative Data Stores Re:(3)
From: larry:ecotope at: 19-Sep-2000 9:51
Hi Joel, Ole
What Joel writes about tradeoffs is true, but the most important thing to
know is that the REBOL hash! datatype only hashes strings (a little missing
documentation). For other datatypes, you just get a more expensive block
with no speed benefits. Jim has said that he will extend it to hash numbers
as well, but no schedule on that.
Cheers

PS Joel, I have really enjoyed your recent essays and benchmarks.
