ESOUI - Updating values using RegisterForUpdate()

Hey,

I have to update duration values (represented by a label) of ~10 objects. Each object contains a control (Top level window) and it's data:

Code:

object.control = #userData

object.data = {

    ['durationInfo'] = {

        ['startTime'] = 0100.00000

        ['endTime'] = 120.12345,

    },

    ['someOtherData'] = {

        -- ...

    },

    ['evenMoreData'] = {

        -- ...

    }

}

All objects show the display duration, taken from self.data.durationInfo, as a label that gets updated ten times per second (= needed for a display that has a precision of one digit after the dot). Let's say our GetGameTimeSeconds() is 114.2, the displayed remaining duration would be 5.92345 seconds, rounded to and displayed as 5.9s.

Now the question: There is two ways of achieving it:

1) Registering one updater that iterates through all objects and sets their displayed durations

Code:

Addon:RegisterForUpdate("GenericUpdater", 100, OnUpdateHandler)



function Addon.OnUpdateHandler()

    local curTime = GetGameTimeSeconds()

    for objName, objData in pairs(Addon.objects) do

        local durationDisplay = objData.durationInfo.endTime - curTime

        Addon.objects[objName]:SetDuration(durationDisplay)

    end



    -- some other stuff that needs to be checked onRegisteredUpdate, too, there are ~4-5 other tables that are iterated here

end

2) Registering an updater for every single object that updates it

Code:



-- genericObj is the class that all objects inherit their methods from

function genericObj:New(controlName)

    -- setting up the metatable, controls, etc.

    -- ...

    -- ...

    -- ...



    genericObj:RegisterForUpdate(controlName, 100, genericObj.OnUpdate)

end



function genericObj.OnUpdate()

    local durationDisplay = self.data['endTime'] - curTime -- (curTime being defined somewhere and stored 

    'globally' in the addon class)

end



-- create an instance of the class genericObj

local testObject = genericObj:New("SuperDuperTestObject")

In short words: Should I register an updater for every object, that only handles itself, or should I register a 'monster updater' for the whole addon that updates every object that is part of the addon by iterating through it using a loop?
