More details: you already get a good memory consumption with just one
50x50 tabular. Once it is inserted, resident memory goes to 26M.
Insert one character in one cell, and you go to 32M; subsequent
characters in the same cell do not see to change a lot. However,
inserting a character in a second cell brings you to 42M!

I did this under purify, and can also tell that it was painfully slow
(as in one or more minutes for each action). We definitely need some
kind of solution to this problem. Does anyone know where the memory
goes? Purify does not report any leak.
