IPCS won't necessarily think about the WHOLE data space, just enough
locations adjacent to the final byte in the space to fill the screen on the
storage panel.  Smart code processing data spaces notices such things as
invalid segments in a data space and produces big numeric answers along the
way.  Similar smart code processing address spaces also thinks about
invalid regions.
