The idea of a large aggregate is good, another thing that you could do is s=
pread this out via SEPARATE, or perhaps via generics. Working with an inter=
preter I combined SEPARATE, GENERIC and overloading to do a static set of o=
perations, see the "risi_script-types-implementation*.ad?" here: https://gi=
thub.com/OneWingedShark/Risi/tree/master/src

That might not be appropriate given that you're not interpreting things, th=
ough.
If that's the case what you could do is make TABLE a constant and populate =
it in-source.
