Although I enjoyed playing with the DOS version of Astro from the archive simulating up to 2500 masses at a time, I'm not planning to simulate the Milky Way. Besides there would be other computing power problems to overcome. My point is there are imaginable applications where this sequence size limitation could make the task even more difficult.

There are probably better ways to do it. Such a sequence would require a massive amount of RAM just to allocate, let alone what would happen on copy-on-write operations. And hard core numerical computation like that is probably best done in something else anyways.
