What is quite evident from this debate is that the programmer 
shouldn't really bother about this. His main task is to express 
the solution of the problem as clearly as possible in the language 
he is using. He should not bother too much about such things as globals
vs. locals. What may be fast one compiler may be slow on another
and vice versa, depending on the technique they use.
