Best array population & access optimization

[Mark Brownell]

Hi,

I have my Blowfish hard coded as a button mouseUp handler completed. 
I'm now trying to optimize the array processing procedures for 
populating the P-box and S-boxes for the block-cypher. My question is 
"What is the fastest process for populating the boxes with large 
numbered numerical values."

example: -785314906, -1730169428, 805139163, -803545161, -1193168915, 
... lots of them

Numbers like this need to be populated into an array, accessed, and 
changed to new values as part of several loop operations. I'm searching 
for the fastest way of doing this.

Does anyone have any testing examples regarding arrays and 
array-management in a stack that uses numbers? How about suggestions 
for array optimization techniques?

Thanks,

Mark
