If you are going to load both chains at the same time, and they are logically associated, then it seems to me that they *should* be in the same file. Your size limitation is going to be the number of atoms that are in memory. Your performance limitation is (basically) the number of atoms that are rendered. Putting it in two files: - would not be any faster to load - would mean that you need to keep track of twice as many files Most importantly: - it does not work today - it is not easy to implement These files are too big for you to look at by hand ... Why do you care how big they are? Let me know if I am misunderstanding something. Miguel ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
