Triggers

will the triggers run more efficiently if they are converted to JASS? u know, will they run lagless (those minilags when they run)

it's the same, GUI is just a Graphical User Interface (Hashjie told me this) and will be converted to jass by default. Warcraft needs to convert them first before able to read them.

if you convert them to Jass, then you should also clean the BJ's and makes the code more efficient, thus it will be the same like you create them using Jass.

okay

they have the same speed.But natives are much quicker than those of blizzard.j
to clean the blizzard wrappers,you must first see the blizzard.j read the functions.
Because blizzard functions returns native and native if used are much quicker.
Also,blizzard j has much longer names from those natives,making it much slower.Longer names are longer to be interpreted by shorter ones.

As a simple explanation (the one I understand, lol) is that GUI is inefficient and thus slower, but jass is much more efficient and thus faster.

When you press "Save Map", the editor converts all your GUI triggers into a big jass file. However, it converts it into a very redundant jass file. Meaning, its not like what a normal jass file should look like. Therefore it doesn't match up to the speed of a trigger originally written in jass.

will the triggers run more efficiently if they are converted to JASS?

So as I said before, the GUI triggers are already converted into jass, just messy written jass. So I think you meant to ask was:

"Will the triggers run more efficiently if you wrote them in jass".

Of course, this is a basic understanding if the technical terms above confused you
