I’m developing a small library and trying to outweigh the pros and cons of using Vector vs. Array.
So far, I can only think of a few things to think of:
Vector only works for FP10, while Array works for both 9 and 10.
Vector is typed (which is a wonderful, fabulous thing), but if I’m only using the Array as a private variable, so I have full control over what goes in and comes out of it, this factor may not play as great a part anymore, but definitely great protection.
I believe I heard somewhere that Vector is a lot faster than Array, yet in a quick inconclusive speed test I did a while back, it didn’t seem to make any real difference at all.
Is Vector really faster than Array? If so, is it faster in all aspects, or only faster in certain situations just as uint is only faster than Number when using byteshifting?
