As perf is close to your heart as well, read recently:

which reminded me of the time I had to battle memory fragmentation in vfp, using Calvins codes -
application ran headlong into seeming standstill after large Rushmore bitmaps could not be fitted into memory -
enough free space, but not a single area large enough and garbage collector unable to compact/reorder ;-)

Dunno if Ricks code might run into similar troubles in Dotnet parts, but thought it might interest you at least in theory ;-)
