Ok. Still, the resident set is pretty large--it's actually touched 2M
worth of those pages. Does it do that even if the default heap is
bigger than necessary?
About an hour ago, I tried to fire up scsh with smaller heaps on a Sparc, and
like those models who refuse to get out of bed for under $10k/day, it refused
to get up for under about 2.2Mw = 9Mb. Split two ways, that's 4.4 Mb per
semispace. Wow!
I'm grateful swap space is thirty cents a megabyte these days.
