impractical class?

Hi is there a point where a class becomes impractical by taking too long to execute if there are lots of functions in it. Is there a practical limit to how many functions can be put in a class before it can slow down script performance dramatically??? Im Just interested to know.

yes.

or, no.

depends upon your defintion of:

class
function
performance
dramatically
and, impractical

much like life's objects.

think of class hammer.
think of how many functions hammer performs.
think of when you have screwdriver, but NEED hammer.
or vice versa.

sometimes the functionality of an 'object' goes beyond the designed 'function' of given object.
