That's nice, but not enough. Collections with more than a few thousand
elements
should use multiple blocks of memory (e.g. btree) to have acceptable
insert performance.

The point being? In a 64bit environment it will be 8MB. Only for bit/
byte sets or compressed
collections it will be less. Cheap pc's currently have up to 16GB of
memory, so the first
2.000.000.000 elements are no problem.
