Summary0019124: MLRS wave brings game to its knees (plus crashes)
DescriptionThis is a long and complex problem, so bear with me. It might be best to split this into multiple problems, but I'm going to write everything up here for ease of reference.

I've just been leaving a game up for the afternoon while I watch some shows. I have a save game here with about 1500 total ships (700 good, 800 bad) in combat. The AI has sent a wave of MLRS at me, and the sheer volume of shots on the screen seems to have brought the game to its knees. I saved the game and quit. As I quit I hit the following bug (I have opened mantis 0019099 against a similar one).

I tried to reload the saved game to make sure it reproduces the problem readily and I hit a new problem:
Exception occurred during world deserialization:FormatException

upon examining the saved game, it's 19M! This is enormous compared to most of the other saved games, which are typically 1-1.5M. From a cursory glance at the data, it looks like there are a staggering number of of BulletBasics. I have gzipped everything (thankfully it compresses well) and uploaded it here.
