It would be interesting to know of other places where users are
greatly exceeding our original estimates of what "N" might be in cases
where we're designing O(f(N)) algorithms.  E.g. I just blithely told
Vikram not to worry about writing an O(N_vectors_per_System) bit of
code, for instance, because in my typical codes (solution, old
solution, rhs, qoi0-adjoint, qoi1-adjoint...) N might be around 6, but
perhaps the reduced-basis people or others vastly exceed that.  (In
this case the constant is small and the code isn't in any inner loops
so he's probably fine even for N=6000, but you see the general idea).
