I'm working on a helper file and realizing that a lot of the functions in there need access to a CI instance for one reason or another (e.g. access to the config, access to the models, etc.). Is there going to be a performance hit due to this?
Am I better off trying to put these helper functions in, say, a "common" controller (it's the controllers that need access to these helper function) since the controller already has access to config, languages, models, etc. (these are usually already autoloaded)?
