Reading from the object variable is always slower than reading from the local variable. So, if you are reading from the object variable frequently, then save it in a local variable and access it.
Look at the code snippet:
if Myobj.Value = 0 then
Do something
elseif Myobj.Value > 0 then
Do something
elseif Myobj.Value < 0 then
Do something
end if
Instead of doing the above, do the following:
MyVar = Myobj.Value
if MyVar = 0 then
Do something
elseif MyVar > 0 then
Do something
elseif MyVar < 0 then
Do something
end if
The latter runs faster.
