gollark: I generally don't optimize far enough to do that sort of thing, but I do like to at least try and not waste memory and too many CPU cycles.
gollark: It's a bit wasteful to go creating a bunch of tables and functions and iterate over the entire list of peripherals and whatnot every peripheral call.
gollark: In the case when it does error performance isn't a huge issue. If it doesn't, it does matter if it is slow.
gollark: Yes.
gollark: You could use `peripheral.getType(name)` to check for the existence of a peripheral. Also to help with finding peripherals by type.
