1. A method of increasing efficiency in a dynamic linker on a computing system having a processor, the method comprising: determining a length of a first string; determining a first check segment of the first string; selecting a second string from a plurality of strings; determining a second check segment of the second string based on the length of the first string; determining that the first check segment matches the second check segment; determining that the first string matches the second string in response to the first check segment matching the second check segment; and linking, using the processor, a table reference by the second string to an application in response to the first string matching the second string.
