Ah, I think that would explain why the append method is not providing
much of a speed gain. I think it only does when the data starts
getting big enough that the engine may be moving 10s of megabytes
around in memory. Even so, the fact that append 'kept up with RAM
with data of just 1-2

A related question I have is - say you have the principle of not changing a
stack but keeping all changes external - so you want to purge everything.
I guess you can still use custom properties as long as they don't get saved
- so how do you ensure the stack doesnt get saved - can you use the
