I agree on all accounts.

If its only a single if statement... sure I doubt it adds much... and even the 
line that you have to have in there to grab the trader's name... which you 
don't really need for an adjacent photon script... I doubt that effects it much 
either.  But when we are all trying to gain an advantage and worried about 
pings here and number of commands accepted by the server there... lets just say 
it could be faster, no matter how small of a margin.

In retrospect, I should have disclosed it.

Concerning performance, there is a single additional IF statement
involved. I'm sure that slows the script down quite a bit.

It's probably worth noting that limpet mines will trigger the script
before figs will, and the filter doesn't come into play in that
scenario at all.
