My advice: Don't spend time thinking about optimizations that you might never need. Write your code, and _if_ it isn't fast enough, benchmark it to find where your problems really are.

Choose your path:

1) Look at my fantastic app! This particular operation here is a bit slow, but in general my app does everything I designed it to - cool!

2) Look at this piece of paper! If I turned these ideas and algorithms into an application I think it would be mighty fast! If it works that is, I don't know that yet.

In the end it's the projects that you finish / release that counts, not the ones you only think about. Prototype!

i have read that dynamic memory allocation and deallocation is a quite an efficiency drain, and i foresee initiating and releasing a lot of small objects, so i was just seeing a potential shortcut, to get some reasonable savings without too much work, possibly.
