Why can't there be more than about 65.000 entries in a dictionary, or more
importantly: how can I make a large dictionary with room for at least
500.000
elements?

I have looked in "Programming Python", "Python in 24 hours" (don't laugh!)
and "Python Pocket Reference" but I can't even find that there is a limit.
