Title: Issue113

fixes #113, however, sparse tables will actually have a slightly increased load time regardless of ``CSMat`` or ``SparseMat``. This small increase in runtime shaves down the amount of memory required but a substantial amount though. I am confused about the runtime as I recall the light parser being substantially faster as well, but I cannot find benchmarks in my email right now.
