HashSet of Strings taking up too much memory, suggestions...? <p>I am currently storing a list of words (around 120,000) in a HashSet, for the purpose of using as a list to check enetered words against to see if they are spelt correctly, and just returning yes or no.</p> <p>I was wondering if there is a way to do this which takes up less memory. Currently 120,000 words is around 12meg, the actual file the words are read from is around 900kb.</p> <p>Any suggestions?</p> <p>Thanks in advance</p>
