How will HyperCard react to a really large stack?  Most of the the examples
distributed are fairly small (except for the help stack).

I have a database that doesn't have the connectivity I would like that I
thought about doing in HyperCard.  My friends and I have been doing blind
beer tastings once a month since 1982.  The database has about 400 beers, 
and the ratings file is getting large: (~60 meetings X ~10 people X ~15
beers = ~9000 records).  Is HyperCard going to choke completely if I try
to put this up?  I would like to be able to ask questings like: How has
a particular beer's rating been affected by the rating/characteristics
of the previous beer that meeting?

Anybody seen a ~10K stack on plus?

Thanks for all your advice in advance...
