    Default When to use pimpl ?

    My question is simple. When exactly pimpl is supposed to be used ? I know it reduces compile time but slightly increases the runtime due to double indirection.
    Using it in library is a big plus. But sometimes i get doubt whether it should be used in *application* or not ?
    Any thoughts ?

    The biggest difference between time and space is that you can't reuse time.
