: Thats it exactly. Currently even the samllest process reserves 32K for its
: combined heap/stack, so we very quickly run out of memory. If we can start
: processes with very little reserved heap, many of them hardly expand it at
: all, and we can run many more processes at the same time.

Then it's probably well worth doing... Remind me, does ELKS support
swapping?
