Subject: Does CWSDPMI or usual DPMI servers do swap ?
Date: Mon, 03 Aug 1998 15:43:33 PDT

So what actually Virtual Memory means ?
I allways ran out of memory when using more
memory than Physical memory available.
So what kind of meaning "swap" mem does have then?
I suppose swapping is only decicated to allocations of
many smaller memory regions, dunno.
Swapping isn't anyway that powerful in DPMI as it is in (f.e.)Windows.
