If you do the following, chances are that you'll have to make minimal changes to
your code.  Excuse the continuation of the David Letterman terminology.

Local Fn DoRecord
gBigAssHandle&=fn NEWHANDLE(_gBigAssRecordSize)
gBigAssRecord&=[myHandle&]
gBigAssRecord&.whatever%=someValue%
someOtherValue%=gBigAssRecord&.whatever%
End Fn

In this way you only use 8 bytes of global space for your global record and you can
still make use of your record structure.
