Indeed.
How much data is this compared to all copies of all messages in this thread ;-)
How many centuries/eternities of 24bytes/15min can you store on a ....
whatever medium ?
Just create a file with a timestamp as a name, one for each block.
Performance? Loading the program also takes cycles.
What you do with these files, is most likely not as urgent as the problem for the Apollo mission "We
know ho to get them to the moon; we'll see later for a solution to get them back".
How much of these data can you store in a laser beam to be reflected from the
moon, oups, clouds :-)
