True, true.

I would use FSRefs by value here rather than storing pointers, i.e.
store the actual FSRefs in the vector rather than a pointer to a
FSRef.  The overhead of copying 80 bytes will be so small as to be
unmeasureable.  You may actually find that the copy overhead is less
than the malloc() overhead of allocating 80 bytes (but only Shark
will tell you).


Except it's not either/or. If you store pointers, such as is the case with a
CF widget or a vector of FSRef pointers, once you allocate the memory for 80
bytes, you still have to copy the FSRef into the allocated memory.
