@Lavina: I agree with yr opinion. They coded once the PRINT, and it is executed the same way both variable or constant string source.
@James: Yes, the garbage collection of Plus/4 is better and much faster than in C64, because in Plus/4 the strings use their last bytes to signal if they are obsolete or not.
@Basman: if the above opinions are correct, you cannot avoid the garbage collection by expanding the memory space. The interpreter, sooner or later, will do it automatically.
