>From table.hxx, and column.[hc]xx, it looks like each column is set as a fixed
sized mdds mtv of MAXROWCOUNT.

http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/sc/source/core/data/column.cxx#83

hence every single column in the table costs us memory space proportional to
MAXROWCOUNT irrespective of the number of non empty data cells in that column.

Can't we set the initial number of elements of mtv's like maCells,
maBroadcasters etc.. to a smaller value say INITROWCOUNT=100 in the ScColumn
constructor and call mtv resize() only when we get a request to set a new data
at a logical location (say 120) which is beyond the current capacity of the mtv
(100) ?

If calling mtv resize(old_size + additional_space_needed) for every new data
addition is suboptimal, can we do resize(old_size + k*additional_space_needed)
where k is some heuristic measure of "expected growth" in space for that column
from the saved history of previous calls to resize() ?
