    why I'm answering this I don't know....
    By "diskbased" she meant that the MOO would run off the disk like many MUDs
    do, rather than running off a copy of the database in RAM. This would solve
    the problem of needing enormous amounts of RAM just to run a MOO. By "fast"
    it would mean less swapping (if any) would be required and more RAM would
    be freed for the machine to use.
