Good. But one more question about rewriting tables, why is writing so much more expensive (in terms of CPU usage) than reading ? best Oeyvind 2007/12/11, Anthony Kozar : > > If you are going to use Chebyshev polynomials (or even non-Chebyshev > polynomials) then I would guess it will be more efficient to use the new > opcode chebyshevpoly (or polynomial) that is now in CVS.
