Ug. Failure to operate the mail program on my phone properly;
the following went to Paolo only instead of the list too.

We probably average less than 10 memory operations per TB, but we reserve space
for 640 of them.
Probably what ought to be fixed is tcg's entire notion of preallocated arrays.
Obstacks, or similar pooled memory, may well work much better.
I can certainly drop this patch, but Claudio was the only one to comment when
it was posted three weeks ago.

Why? Are there more than 10 or so loads in the typical tb?
