RPL programming questions

[Joe Horn]

I agree with Raymond and peacecalc. Local variables are almost as fast as doing everything on the stack, at least when compared with global variables, which are very slow. If you want to squeeze every millisecond out of a loop that iterates many times, then doing everything on the stack is faster than local vars... but outside of a loop the benefit is offset by the time lost attempting to modify or debug the code later.
