proper way to release a static NSMutableDictionary?

Hello, all ...

Imagine this:

static NSMutableDictionary *lookup = [NSMutableDictionary new];

... now imagine a situation where I need to clear that dictionary. If I call

[lookup release];
lookup = [NSMutableDictionary new];

... it will obviously be faster than coding a for loop and removing each object in the dictionary, but since it was declared as static, which is safer?

Regards,

John
