<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi Jean and all</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>In terms of perfomance the functions encode and
encode_int are equivalent?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I prefer to use the *_int functions because i
can pass the original buffer directly, but in my tests it takes two times more
cpu usage.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks again</FONT></DIV>
