40M are needed for one of those 5 men tablebase, I don't know which one... it's
the worst case scenario you can say... :) I think it is anti-proportional to the
TB-size (seems logical to me) - when compression is better, the extracted part
is longer... But I don't know - Bob, Eugene ?!

correct, it is dynamically allocated.
