Eon’s ago I had a similar problem in Fortran.
My solution was to break up my huge array into 3 smaller
alphabetical arrays. I had to first determine with some
if statements which of the 3 arrays I had to search.
The solution turned a glacially slow search into a very acceptable one.
You may want to try a similar solution.
That's a thought, though I hate to go there. I was using the SOWPODS dictionary which has a
gazillion words, and switched to a different, shorter word list and that did help a bit.
I noticed today though that there's a more general slowdown overall. When I first launch the
app it takes only a second to set up the board display. If I keep hitting the "new board"
button repeatedly, each setup takes a bit longer.
