This is going off-topic a little, but I have often thought it would be useful for operating systems to provide fixed areas containing (for example) 256 blanks, 256 binary zeros, commonly used translate tables, and so on. This would enable programs to avoid storing such values within them and reduce size of programs. I wonder how many very similar translate tables are stored in LPA, when a single one would suffice.
