It's GB, looks like I didn't save my work when I did a rebase and update of this patch. I'll add to my todo list for next version

Do you mean the `mem = <val>`? Those aren't in order, and I thought it was easier to read if the switch was ordered.

Oh! Yes I'll queue that as an additional patch. There's at least 2 or 3 other spots where that would be good to have.
