Er, I thought that would help the disk buffering at the expense of RAM 
available to local apps???  Could someone please fill in the details of 
exactly how this changes RAM allocation?
But given that one can add 16 mb of RAM for under $60 these days, we really 
don't have to suffer from RAM shortage like may of us poor folk did a year 
ago when adding that 16 MB would cost $500.
