there are 3 different bangs; |bng|: gui bang ... very slow, since it sends data over the gui connection
|bang(: the good old bang ... this is slow, too, since the string "bang" is converted to a bang message each time, you use it ...
|bang|: the fastest conversion ... best choice ...
Just to complete this: There also is [t b]. How would that fit into the equation? Is it the same as [bang]?
not exactly ... in my view of the _language_ pd these three are bang objects. |t b| is a |trigger| object with the argument "bang". although it shouldn't be much slower than |bang|, i think it introduces some overhead (i haven't checked the source, though)
