Dumb question, but wouldn't memory mapping or lazy/streaming processing (e.g. SAX for parsing large XML documents, Java Streams for handling large amounts of "things", memory mapped files for anything you don't need…
A purely selfish request, I know, but may I ask why? :)
Sorry to have been unclear -- thank you for making the effort to read my measly comment, however! It does appear similar to the idea of abusing tuples, insofar as having to keep the meanings of each element in mind…
To counter your anecdote with some more anecdote, I just switched from Chrome to Firefox and have felt that the latter has some serious performance advantages over the former.
