We all know RAM is cheap nowadays.
I made some tries with Scid and here is the memory footprint I got :
Scid empty : 26 MB
+ -> with a base of 1.5 M games loaded : 128 MB
+ -> with 1 M games in clipboard : 359 MB
So I think the clipboard can handle 1 M games without problems. If an user gets
some trouble (swap), he can simply press the "cancel" button during the loading
process.
The idea of making a dynamically configurable limit for the clipbase is not a
real safety belt, I think.
So, as the highest request I got was for a clipbase of 550.000 games, I think 1
M is a limit that will please everybody.
