and for maintainablilty and apprehension there is no question that GOSUB is preferable.
I use GOTO only when it yields a latency improvement. In the case of 'Badpotsim' the difference was small but measurable, about 800us 

I'm very green on this platform and it exhibits some damned odd quirks: ie some GOSUBS are just as fast as GOTO's - it SEEMS to depend on what is inside the subroutine.

If these quirks form a pattern and behave consistently - i will post what i find

If you have gear that can measure the latency outside the AtomPro, i'd love to know what it tells you

best,
