Long KML text file with no return chars

[Michael Doub]

The OS manages virtual memory and will move pages in and out of physical 
memory for you.  There is no need to worry about the system loosing 
data.  However you should be aware of this and try to control the way 
your code accesses memory.   if your code randomly accesses the data, 
you can cause the system to spend a lot time moving pages in and out of 
memory.   So processing in sections would help manage the performance.
