A flat representation of our nested data is, alas, too large to contain in memory; and dynamically re-establishing context for an arbitrary subset of it is expensive. Parallel recursion isn't unheard of [1]; and I was hoping SGE would worry about the load balancing, etc. for me. Barring that, though, we might have to get creatively iterative.
