It only matters if you care about memory usage. However, there is a bug in insert_files(). It doesn't properly respect the quoting style defined by build_argv(). For instance, this string will be misinterpreted as a request for file insertion (the quotes are part of the string): " -@file" I think it's important to respect this quoting style, because it is the same quoting style used by spawn_guts().
