Hi All,

I'm about to run through all 24GB+ of TIGER Line files and convert the
data to a different format. The size of my target data structure can
be computed as a function of the number of streets in the TIGER data.

Does anyone have a rough idea of how many streets/roads/etc. to
expect? I need to know so I can determine whether my process will have
enough virtual memory to hold the entire data structure or if I will
have to do some trickery.

TIA,

-Le Chaud Lapin-
