gollark: You're not helping. Znepb presumably knows what they want.
gollark: It's possible that `rs` is marginally better-performing because its name is shorter so any function operating on it does less work, but this effect is undoubtedly tiny enough to be entirely insignificant.
gollark: The names are defined here:```java @Override public String[] getNames() { return new String[] { "rs", "redstone" }; }```in https://github.com/SquidDev-CC/CC-Tweaked/blob/4c8fd4fc358d034b8346d0a5325039076c1d641b/src/main/java/dan200/computercraft/core/apis/RedstoneAPI.java#L26-L30.
gollark: It's entirely possible they're exactly the same speed and none of this matters.
gollark: Oh, wait, scrolled up and you only want directly connected ones, never mind!
