Under the covers List(Of T) and ArrayList are simply arrays. They just
resize
their selves as they grow in an intelligent fashion.

Are you saying if I insert an element at the bottom of a million item List
then it will just copy a huge array up 1 element? Yikes!


That's exactly what it would do. It pays to look at the performance
characteristics of a collection before you use it.
