In fact (note to shari), depending on your particular application, you may find it more efficient to have an array with 300 * 1000 elements than to have an array with 300 elements of 1000 items each. Though rev's chunk expressions are extremely efficient, accessing the thousandth item in a list is generally going to be slower than accessing an array element, even in a big array.

Thanks for the tip. I'm amazed at the size of your array! Refreshing to know it works even that big!

At this juncture, I can arrange the array pretty much anyway I wish. I hadn't considered the above, but it would work just fine that way.

Whatever allows for the fastest access is the goal.

How much memory did your huge array need?
