Aren't user spaces limited to 16m? >Do you really want to grab 16Meg of memory???? Actually, I do have some processes where I want an arbitrarily large amount of contiguous memory. Parsing XML and other large stream files (AFPDS data!) is an interesting chore when one has to segment the incoming data into a buffer that is smaller than the logical structure one is trying to decode. Terabyte spaces seem to be the ticket here, but I admit I haven't had much more than a cursory peek at them. --buck
