Jacque, are you trying to keep the whole of SOWPODS in memory the whole time? That’s a 2.5MB file. It sounds to me like you are getting virtual memory thrashing.
I'm thinking the same thing, it's the only explanation. I stopped using SOWPODS and things got a bit faster after I substituted a file half that size.
I'm sure you and Bob are right about using a database, but I'm not a database person and I wouldn't know where to start. If anyone wants to help, you can have a free copy of my already-free game...
