I've tried it with 10000 and more entries. The QuickSort times were always faster than the lookup_index_find_record_move_record time. So it wasn't the right approach. Lookup_index_find_record without moving the record for different sortings, would be much better probably. But this had bring me to a completly rewrite of my record access routines. I was too lazy for it :-) Now it starts to get slow with 10000 or more entries.
