Yup. But I'd expect that the JIT would compile out that object
reference
anyway, so who cares. :)

OK, I can't argue there. :-) And again, I was really posting for the
uninitiated.

Actually, I went and looked. If I'm doing this right, the JIT'd code
actually does NOT compile out the reference. The reference results in 1
extra push, mov and pop. Of course, on a multi-Ghz machine, we're
talking about adding several BILLIONTHS of a second to the function, so,
um, who cares. :)
