I'm curious as to whether there is a significant difference between putting a series of formula commands together in one line of a macro, or splitting them into multiple lines.
A simple example would be a macro that does nothing more than turn on three different lights with ph_insteon commands. The macro could be one line (with all three ph_insteon commands joined together) or three separate lines.
Is there a significant processing difference (either from a PH point of view of an Insteon view)?
Thanks

I can’t imagine why there would be a significant difference except maybe in an I/O command that may change it's sequence on the queue. The routines that build from the script probably have to go through the same hoops and loops. I do 1 liners for simplicity. The only place serializing plays into it is in the Boolean field of triggers.

Single lines also make debugging easier.
