Vector is synchronised.There will be some delay involved. Is is also a legacy type.
It has been retrofitted to be included in the Collections Package Amount of memory
used may be increased exponentially in case of  Vectors. It doubles itself each
time memory requirement is there.

ArrayList will be a more easier way of doing this. It is better to implement the
retrieval of results as a List  i.e. the Interface since at a later stage you can
use it as an implementation like LinkedList, etc.In case of memory requirement the
ArrayList will only increase its memory footprint by 50% according to the current
implementation of SUN's JDK

Hope this helps
