formatNumber performance

Hi,
  Unfortunately I don't have net access at home right at the moment,
so I'm coding at home, then discussing here..

Yes.

It finds out which locale we are in to know whether to use , or . for
the decimal place.

Can someone follow up on this.  I'm guessing that kapplication calls
QLocale::setDefault  - is this true?
