I'm using a linked list.  This distributes the data across more objects (to
mitigate swapping concerns) and avoids any issues with respect to max array
size.  Though obviously getting the actual list of all clones isn't anywhere
near as fast as it would be by your method.  I don't find a need to get that
information too often, though.
