Quite big memory footprint. Is this normal? #13

I just started using egeoip and the reserved memory of the erlang VM went up from ~60MB to ~270MB on 64 bit erlang 17.3

Not that it's a huge problem, just asking if it's normal.

That doesn't sound bad. The database is read into memory. It would be a problem if it kept growing but the cost to use it should be relatively constant past that.

thanks for the clarification
