I have developed Hal to the point where the size of his mainbrain is now 37 meg.
This obviously slowed him down a lot - so I changed the script so Hal looks through six smaller sized mainbrain files.
Suprisingly, even though the mainbrain files are only now 7 meg each, Hal is still running very slowly.
My only guess for why he still runs slowly, is perhaps he keeps all of the six files open at the same time. Does anyone know if this is the case - and if there is anything I can do to make him close each file once he has read it?
Thanks - Psych [?]
