Is there a difference in execution time between the version on the left (connected directly) and the version on the right (using send and receive)? In other words, is there a symbol lookup for "foo" everytime something is sent out or is Max smart enough to make the identical connections on the right as it does on the left, i.e, "compile time" (even though there isn't actually a compiler here)

Indeed....thanks for that.....I had hoped that Max was clever enough to "patch" named connections to be exactly the same as wired connections .....presumably it could do the the necessary lookups as soon as you have finished creating the object and/or loading any patchers that also have send/receive objects in them.
