Thanks Dick,

I also found info on how arrays are handled in the Executable File Spec. I
didn't see it before. My cut on this is that I will use single-dimension
arrays in non-time-critical areas and avoid mult-dimensional arrays
alltogether. It sounds like there is a lot of copying and memory
alloc/freeing going on that could be very inefficient. This seems to be in
support of their polymorphism of byte codes. Maybe I'll do an analysis
someday when I'm bored :-).

I would suggest that the easiest way to understand how standard firmware
handles arrays is to go to the NI web site and do a search on something
like "efficient LabVIEW memory management" which will result in a nice
description of how LabVIEW handles arrays. And then assume that the
NXT-G firmware does something quite similar.
