Expressions Optimization

$

I use a lot of expressions - to a point where I sometimes get stack overrun errors in renders, and other glitches.

 

I am wondering if anyone has advice for optimizing expressions and reducing the amount of redundant calculations.

 

At the moment, the only way I can think of to make a 'comp-level variable', is to create a text layer, calculate something in the 'Source Text' property, and have other expressions refer to that.  For numerical values, I might use a Slider or Point control for the same purpose, depending on the value type.  Does anyone know if this actually helps to optimize expression evaluation?

 

Thanks,

Bryan
