Exception Overhead?
-
I am curious about the actual measured overhead in program performance and size due to exception handling. Ideally this would isolate the effects of multiply-nested try/catch blocks, etc. While I could build some sample apps to measure this, I was wondering if anyone has or can point me to some definitive, quantitative info before I start that effort?

Hi Brian, I'm not sure if the blogs below would give you an idea or not, but this chap has something worth reading: The Cost of Exceptions[^] Performance[^]
