Faster ByteArray search/loop

[Schmidt]

Yes, in practice the performance is not so abysmal. For instance I use InStrB for byte-arrays equality comparison like this

Private Function pvArrayEqual(baFirst() As Byte, baSecond() As Byte) As Boolean
    If pvArraySize(baFirst) = pvArraySize(baSecond) Then
        pvArrayEqual = (InStrB(baFirst, baSecond) = 1)
    End If
End Function

cheers,

IMO, faster should be a direct expression (avoiding the call-overhead to your Private Function):
If CStr(baFirst) = CStr(baSecond) Then ...

instead of:
If pvArrayEqual(baFirst, baSecond) Then ...
