Loading Models in __construct

[eluser]CI_Newb[/eluser]
If I have a controller that has 20 functions in it and 15 of those all require the same model.

Is it better to load it in the __construct in the controller or in each individual function?

Don't need it enough to warrant autoloading it though.

Yes, constructor is the right place to load the model if its used in majority of methods in that controller.
Use $this->ouput->enable_profiler() to see how much it affects memory usage and load time when model is loaded/not loaded. The difference usually is so minimal that it doesnt matter.

Awesome stuff, thanks for the info!
