Currently the size of the array used for ptrlist is 29.
However, some inspection shows that the mean size of ptrlists
is much smaller: around 2.5 - 5 only. This means that most memory
allocated for ptrlists are never used.
Change this by changing the size to the conservative value of 13.
With this value, on some test programs, memory used for ptrlists
is only 43% - 48% smaller or 24% - 28% for the total memory.
This difference in memory consumption allow also to win some time:
5 - 7% in the conditions used for the test but YMMV.
