	Ah - right :-) so, I suspect the common way to handle these is simply
to look around at the code accessing a given list, and consider how
frequently it is likely to be accessed. The std::vector also (kohei
suggested) is fast to append to if we do it carefully - so ...

	Ultimately, run-time profiling will only show you what your data set
touches, and (as yet) we have no reliable set of representative calc
documents together to know what they look like ;-)

	So - I would personally, just recommend converting them using a bit of
common sense / poking around to infer their use. We'll get performance
regression complaints later if we go too far wrong no doubt :-)

	Thanks,

		Michael.
