Just a silly one:  if you seldom use that Hash in the store, you can
eliminate it.  You could
still lookup your objects by iterating trough ObjectSpace and find them.
 But this way the
GC will be able to drop objects if there's no reference to them.  Basically
what you do here
the same old stuff:  a trade off between memory and CPU.  You have to
decide if lookup
speed is more important than memory footprint or the other way around.
 (...or wait for a
less silly answer here... :)
