Hi John,

Yes, I have just "theoretically" noted that in the near future you'll be
able to EVEN MORE EASILY work with sets of millions (and billions?) records
by just loading them into memory, "crunching", and saving back updated...

... it will be just 1,2,3 instead of your today's (1,2,3) (1,2,3)... (1,2,3)
(multi-threaded)...

... the time just to develop (1,2,3) (1,2,3)... (1,2,3)... will be more
expensive than time to develop and run 1,2,3 on the near future hardware
(hardware costs included)...

All of which is beside the point.

Divide and conquer.  A principal discovered by military strategists
thousands of years ago, and 
applied to problems of all sorts today.

I can EASILY work with sets of thousands, and even hundreds of thousands of
records.  In real life, 
in my computer.
