I wasn't necessarily aiming for a specific speed/cost.  I know I can easily 
find a standard task safe container and use that and it might be faster (or at 
least fast enough) on various platforms.  This is more for a different option 
from the normal.  It might be faster on some platforms or slower, but it is 
mostly meant to be a tool in toolkit.
