Speed up a slow loop

[J. Landman Gay]

My memory checks on the Pixel 5 had a maximum app memory use of about 375 
MB of RAM. I think that was before I removed the duplicate copy of the 
dictionary data though, which if so would bring the total down.

That said, other apps had more. Chrome browser used over 300 MB, Play Store 
411 MB,  my mail client 211MB. Those do okay on the phone. And I still 
don't understand why my cheap tablet with half the RAM handled anything I 
threw at it, including SOWPODS, without blinking.
