Registry or Ini files

[JB]

Hi Folks,

Is it quicker to query the registry or to query an .ini file?

I don't have that much data to query from the reg so I thought it would be
better from there.

Any thoughts?

Cheers

I think you'd better tell us a bit about what you're trying to do. I
cannot think of a realistic application where the speed difference,
whichever way goes, would matter. If you're accessing the registry or
INI file heavily enough for its efficiency to be significant, you
probably should be using some other form of storage.
