Representationally I'd say it's a wash...using hashes would not really add anything nor subtract anything as far as I can say. In memory, however, hashes are significantly more costly than a small array. I'd be interested to see your idea of a hashified version, but I think the pure array approach is going to be the lightest way by far. - Charlie
