Depending on what sort of data you has, you could try allocating all of your memory on startup, organised into related "zones". That way you are not constantly allocating/deallocating anything. Just overwriting values. This can provide an unbelievable speed inprovement, and low memory overheads/paging and so on.

I'll take a good look at this. Thanks.

I think I'll do a fair bit of packing 8 bit bytes into 64 bit integers - trade speed for memory, and think hard on how best to use my 4 x 512GB RAID. I suspect experimentation is the only way.

best wishes
