Well i did some benchmarking, and it takes like 1ms when you iterate over 900 items and with 10.000 it takes 5ms to run the code. Ofcourse almost nobody will reach more then 900 players and for a dialog list is it okay to use it this way yeah, but it still takes some time to run this, then what you did stated.


Also the code i use to benchmark it:

PHP Code:

    new tick = GetTickCount();
    new string[20];
    for (new i = 0; i != 10000; ++i) {
        format(string, sizeof(string), "stats_%d_player", i);
        SetPVarInt(playerid, string, i);
    }
    printf("End: %dms", (GetTickCount() - tick));
