A Warning indicates a potential problem in the content file(s) that the user told OpenMW to load. E.g. this might cause an object to not display at all or as intended, however the rest of the game will run fine.
An Error, however, is more likely to be a bug with the engine itself - it means that basic assumptions have been violated and the engine might not run correctly anymore.
The above mostly applies to errors/warnings during game-play; startup issues are handled differently: when a file is completely invalid/corrupted to the point that the engine can not start, that might cause messages that are worded as Error due to the severity of the issue but are not necessarily the engine's fault.
Hopefully, being a little more consistent here will alleviate confusion among users as to when a log message should be reported and to whom.
Use pointers as map keys instead of string IDs. Resolves a nasty performance bottleneck on functions like hasCommonDisease() that previously had to look up all contained spells from the ESM store on every call. hasCommonDisease() is called hundreds of times per frame by the AI target update since it's used to calculate target disposition.
The total cost of hasCommonDisease() was 2.7% of the frame loop, now it's negligible.
