The performance of KeyValues is poor. Hence why SourceMod wrote their own parser constructs for it (SMC).

Edit: Incidentally, keys are stored as a linked list in KeyValues, at least according to the documentation for FindLastSubKey (which SourceMod doesn't support).

As for the API for it, part of the problem with the API is that it was originally an OO API and was ported to SourcePawn. As far as I'm aware, SourcePawn doesn't include any of the changes made to it in the Source 2013 SDK (i.e. FOR_EACH_SUBKEY, GetBool, FindLastSubKey, RecursiveMergeKeyValues, etc...). Or even the KeyValuesCompiler?

I'm just going to attach the inc file here for anyone that wants to use wget on it.

But how in Heaven do I install it? p-p

You download it, put it into your 'include' folder, and then put #include <kvizzle> at the top of your new plugin.

You only need it if you are compiling a plugin that uses it. It doesn't do anything on it's own.
