Seems to me you could extend your testing to generate 8000 constants
in a file pretty easily, and just benchmark it and find out if it's
acceptable.

Hell, go for 16000 and 32000 tests as well, and benchmark those.

The pattern should be obvious pretty quickly, and you'll know, beyond
a shadow of a doubt, if you will be happy in 2 years.  (On this
issue.)

Yes, but in two years speeds will increase and prices will decrease drastically. What is today's "Too Big" will become tomorrow's "minimum requirement". For example, the $15,000 you would have spent in 1984 for hard drive storage can be bought today for less than one cent.
