Greetings Spider Man,
 
  Pretty cool looking stuff dude. I haven't looked at the source yet but
I am curious as to wether you are storing your data inside of arrays.
I understand this can help a lot where memory effeciency is an issue.
Also concerning your problems with the stack overhead. I was reading
through the section in the docs concerning adc bail out, max trace levels,
and max intersections. In each area of discussion there was mention of
the stacks use in the program and may give you some insight as to how
you might change these global settings or program your code around their
limitations (or process attributes depending on your point of view).

Cheers,
