what is should had added is that there are many methods to reduce memory usage but they mostly increase processor load & slow execution when there is plenty of memory it makes more sense to code for speed even if this uses more memory how are you measuring efficiency speed , memory usage or a combination of both? Define waste if the memory used gets the task completed faster is it wasted? -- In 1869 the waffle iron was invented for people who had wrinkled waffles. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
