Does virtualizing all methods slow C++ down ?  We
virtualize all methods as a matter of course since
we use groups of objects all over the place.  To
illustrate this I have included the top portion of
our header files:

class GenGroup : public DataGroup
{
public:
    int transferingDataNow;
public:
       //  constructor
    GenGroup ();
    GenGroup (const GenGroup & rhs);
    GenGroup & operator = (const GenGroup & rhs);
       //  destructor
    virtual ~GenGroup ();
    virtual GenGroup * clone () { return new GenGroup ( * this); }
    virtual void makeUnitsInput (InputCollection * anInpCol);
    virtual void reinitStreamBox (FmFile * FMFile);
    virtual DataDescriptor * descriptor (int aSymbol, int version);
...

Thanks
Lynn
