No. It is a large sample of statistically independent events in an extremely complex probability space (dimensionality indefinite but on the order of ~3000)
My Outlook file at work hits 10GB about once a year and I need to swap it out.

In my case we have terabytes of data.
And yeah, it is relevant.

I assume that it was an answer to me (pretty quick )
yeah, it is relevant to know the zero's, but there are no reason to register them one by one - all you need to know is what areas/cubics (dammit, what's the right word ?) - that save space and improves performance. only problem is that it demands an intelligent programmer
With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

The reason you can probe this space at all in a meaningful manner is that most of these degrees of freedom are almost independent of each other (while many others are not).

Meh, I have files considerably bigger than 2GB and I'm not doing anything that unusual. Take fifty thousand respondents, ask them ~100 questions each, and put their answers in a dataset... at 5m distinct cells plus demographic data it can get pretty big pretty fast.
(Especially when people do silly things like have 60,000 variables per person due to asking a lot of different questions to each set of people... but that's a different story entirely.)

There are all sorts of reasons you might want to keep each individual cell. For example, if you have a ton of variables, the number of potential analyses might well be more than the data itself... and you don't always know all of the potential statistics desired, so usually it's best to keep the original.
Now, that said, there are tons of ways to make this more compact; don't know about KH's situation so wouldn't venture to say for him. In my situation, though, as I work for clients, often I have to conform to their preferences, even if they make little sense to me.

Sounds interesting - do you have a link that explains what you are doing ? (I rarely goes beyond 2455 in dimensionality)

Well, I do the same - if you mess with data about all books (well almost) that are written in the world, 2 Gb isn't much. The problem is that I don't have any zeroes - there may be redundant data, but compared to the relevant they are few and rarely worth optimazation.

I bet if you zipped it you'd see tremendous optimization in size.
