A mistake most starting chess programmers make is trying to optomize these kinds of things. It is not a good use of your effort. Even if you double the computational speed of your program, that is only good for about 70-100 ELO. The important thing is being bug-free and the optimizaitons make things more complicated and introduce more bugs.
