Are programs written to make heavy use of exceptions going to be markedly
slower than programs written more traditionally with loops/ifs, etc?
(My uninformed mental picture of exception is that they would use some type of
underlying setjump/longjump overhead.)
Thanks in advance to anyone who replies.
