Not sure what the answer would be or even if it's really relevant - BUT, here goes.

When writing/generating code sets (the larger the more impact), is there a difference in using Tabs -vs- spaces on the optimizer when doing initial parsing of a request?

i.e. is it more efficient to use Tabs or Spaces or is it a wash?

I use a lot of formatting for better readability, etc. My SQL generating/auto formatting tool uses Tabs and some of our folks use spaces with an editor like Ultra-edit (i.e. converts tabs-spaces and vise-versa).

If there is an efficiency 'factor' I'd like to know.

Thanks in advance for any input!
