I'd like to challenge that. Back when I was trying to work with the code, I
accidentally used the full parsing with uses, and didn't even notice. The
result might use more RAM, of course, but in this day and age I just don't
care. I'd much rather have instant uses and renames (which I use *constantly*)
than save the RAM. Perhaps an experiment could be made where uses were always
generated? Or perhaps just for files in the opened projects?
