Just by the way, if the latest version somehow uses mmap without my having noticed, then I've ontroduced a red herring. ;-) Version 0.3 certainly didn't use mmap. As I understand it, this means that the performance hit, whatever the magnitude, would be noticed with larger files. I've copied the author, who's probably in the best position to give you hard numbers. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.
