in thread Store large hashes more efficiently

I have my own projects to take care of. I've supplied you with code that measures both; and you have the problem.

The only way for either of us to determine whether your suggestions are improvements; is to try them: do they make lookups slower or faster; or use more or less memory?

If I do it, you remain a neophyte. If you do it, you become less of a neophyte.

    I wasn't suggesting you try it for me - I just wanted to make sure I wasn't totally misunderstanding your code and go off on a wild goose chase...
