Well, yes - that's the *other* thing keeping me awake a night[*].

But that's really a question for a different group. (Of course,
if anyone here has suggestions [besides praying for *really fast*,
*really big* SSDs to become affordable in the next two years], I'd
be happy to hear them - email would be fine, since it's off-topic.)

[*]It doesn't just have to get to disk that fast, but has to
be read off of disk [at ~1/3 the write rate, using the math
interpretation of '~' this time!] at the same time.
