Subject: Do symbol references always go through a hash table?

Hi Internals,

I'd like to know whether references to
classes/functions/methods/properties/variables always go through a hash
table at runtime, or if the name is optimised into a pointer or fixed
offset. I recall seeing such an optimisation for local variables, but what
about the others?

Thanks
