Try this, might lock your mirc up for a while, maybe thats why they call them while loops smile
Code:
alias bigtable {
  hmake bigtable 10000
  var %x = 400000, %t = $ticks
  echo -a mIRC is about to lock up for a few seconds...
  while (%x) {
;    if (%x == 200000) { scon -a !ping $ticks }
    hadd bigtable %x big line of text with lots and lots or words here
    dec %x
  }
  echo -a I added $hget(bigtable,0).item items to bigtable in $calc($ticks -%t) milliseconds.
  ;hfree bigtable
}
 

I commented out a line there in the loop, you might want to uncomment it if you want to stay on the servers you are on.
It took my computer about 100 seconds to run that,

table is pretty big, the raw data without the item names is.
$bytes($calc($len(big line of text with lots and lots or words here) *400000)).suf
but im sure you can use all your ram for a hash table if you really need to.
