I generated a ~22-megabyte file with this small Python program:
print "["
for i in xrange(2000000):
print "'" + str(i) + "', "
print "]"As the original poster suggested, Python uses at least several hundreds of megabytes when execfile()ing that source. I had to kill the program before it exited because it brought my computer (1GB RAM) to a standstill. Jeff
