I'd use a power of two for your split size, just to make the math faster.My records can have a variable length: maybe that's the right time to fix them or i'll have to put a jump table on each "big" record.
Put a header of offsets for whatever split size you use at the front of your record. To get to record (REAL_N), you'd go to record (REAL_N / 64), get offset (REAL_N % 64), add that value to the pointer value at the start of the record, and there you go. You'll need your own resize/readjust pointer pool code, but that's life.
