static variables, the stack, the heap, and speed

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi, Folks,

I've read an article that says that since program get a static
variable's storage from the heap, the program can access static
variables faster than it can access automatic ones.  Is that true?

Thanks.
