Windows Phone and big memory allocation

I want to play with an old code I wrote of a chess engine trying to port it on WPhone. My old code uses a very big hash structure ( a so called Transposition Table ) that is up to 20 mb. Is this requirement acceptable for a game working on WP7, ora have I to resort in using different structure ( there is this option, the one used when no big amount of memory where avaiable called Refutation Table ) ?

Windows Phone apps can allocate up to 90MB so it should be possible to use your structure. You'll just need to be very careful about how you use it and what else your app does.
