Hello,

Thanks to the answers I understand that big tuples
aren't really a problem. I realise that it would have
been easy to test it myself, but sharing experiences
isn't that bad. To answer some of the
questions asked to me: the memory of my machine
is 64 Mb. The reason I need a big tuple is: I'm trying
to develop a text retrieval program in Python. Tuples
seem to be convenient to store the references to the
individual words of a text.
Thanks again for the answers!
