I started Puzzle 55. I'm already over 10 parts and still making more. So it doesn't load the baby table into memory — it writes it to disk in a zillion parts? So puzzle 66 requires a 2TB hard drive?
Yes. Theoretically, you need at least 1TB. I've never tried more than 60. Anything around 300GB is considered a baby table. I don't have time to wait for a bigger one to be generated.
