N64 - Manually deleting a lot of results in RAM Search freezes emulator

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Bizhawk 1.7.0 - Majora's Mask U

When manually deleting a lot of search results in RAM Search at once Bizhawk 
will freeze with a (Not Responding) in the title bar. At this point you have to 
terminate the process because even waiting multiple minutes doesn't unfreeze it.
Also this was a one byte search, so there were many individual results.

As of r7104 this is greatly improved.  I removed a million or so manually in 
about 1 second.  Just keep in mind there is a fine line between bug and user 
error here.  The intent with manual deletion is to remove small numbers 
yourself.  If you are deleting so many at once you are probably doing it via 
address range, in which case the "by address" type searches are more correct.

I might be blind, but I couldn't find an option to just search in a specific 
range. If there was, I would have used it. 
In this specific case I knew enemy health is probably somewhere in the 4XXXXX 
range and not much else. As far as I know there is no way to exclude other 
adress besides deleting them.

Anywho, thanks for improving this.
