I'm working on a small program that loads a elevation map and scales it
down... original is 18 megs, I have 20. When it gets amost half way it
starts working the disk and becomes about 10000 times slower :( I'm
assuming that this is because of virtual memory... but is it supose to
be this slow. I know I could probably get around this, but I would
rather know whats going on.
