Hi David,
sounds excellent, we'll definitely be trying it out.
Should we expect the Darwin version to be close to stable as well or should we
concentrate on Linux only?

Hi Gerwin,
The reason I've concentrated on Linux is simply that I don't have a Mac.
I can use the Macs at TÜM but provoking them to start paging isn't
friendly to other users. It's likely that the current code will work
equally well on Mac OS so go ahead and try it.
Windows/Cygwin is a somewhat different matter. There's no easy way to
detect paging on Windows. The page fault counter that is available
actually returns the soft page count and apparently this is what Cygwin
returns as the hard page count. I've had to use an undocumented
interface to get the paging count in that case and it may overestimate
it. I'll just have to see how that works.
Regards,
David
