I'm generally deficient when it comes to databases but curious how one creates a memory based one. Is there a trick, and does it work with others besides sql?

This is probably a newbie question.

For multiple recursions into an array I came up with a method for loading an array into a memory based sql database. Subsequent queries take less time, depending of course on how complex they are, but you can do lots of cool thinks, like complex filtering / sorts, calculations, etc. to a cursor, then I have a function that converts a cursor to an array.

I originally used it to get the topmost, leftmost, bottommost and rightmost objects on a card that were visible by using min and max queries on a list of the objects. But of course the method can be expanded to do almost anything.

Not yet fixable for me:
Array operations on larger data sets still slower than they were

Non engine related:
My SQL-Fu has improved a bit ;-) Quite a bit of performance to gain there.

Did anybody of you happen to refactor old code and if so, do you have any observations you might want to share?

Cheers,

Malte
