Re: Balloon 2.0 - Slow!

I wasn't going to post publically, but skimming
your post, Anthony, you are right (well, I only skimmed,
but I think you know what you are talking about...).
I'll just add that adding features making the NDA too large
is also somewhat of a crock. You can use dynamic segments
to reduce the memory cost of featuritis. You can also use
code resources, but then you have a little extra work.

The other thing that I didn't notice stated is that Balloon's
not loading files into memory gives it the ability to work
with files larger than memory, but I expect GS-ShrinkIt to
cope with them too.
