(Just a crazy idea. I don't know if it would work at all...).Used this years ago on some Sun1 Sparcstation with 8MB of memory. The C-calls were the "fseek, fread, fwrite" family, but disk is quite slow compared to on line memory. I recall a story of using memory on another Sparc over the network as this was faster than local disk access. OK, in those days everything was faster than a disk :)
I was thinking more along the lines of using the operating system level memory mapping offered by Windows. This is supposed to be pretty efficient and work very much like virtual memory with frequently used areas kept in RAM. What I do not know is what kind of limitations Windows puts on memory mapped files :-)
