that's a possibility, but i'd suspect the overhead comes from when 
variables are actually inserted/replaced and/or characters escaped.  I 
doubt there would be much of a difference between "status" and 'status' 
  Nor would there be much of a diffrence between 'status '.$foo.' blah'; 
and "status $foo blah";

I'd be interested to see if there were much a difference 
performance-wise though.
