  It's definitely heap I need. I already have 2MB arm chunk stored in
storage RAM. Not to mention at least another meg or so data also in the
read only (although I write to it with DmWrite). The rest has to be
dynamic RAM, since those are var arrays and DmWrite would be to slow.

*> are you sure you cannot isolate the read/write RAM from read/only?

I already did. As I said I have 2MB chunk in read only RAM. The rest should
be read/write.

  That is what I expected, and that's the reason for my cynism. I did
get a personal answer, however. I suppose people are not sharing their
hard earned knowledge easily, in order to beat the competition.
