obviously bad, it's not apparent to me why people think this is not
a good approach --- at least for high-reliability servers. And Linux

I will say I do use swap sometimes when I am editing a huge image or

I have spent some time working on an Oracle version of dblink. It works

It already supports some basic features such as persistent connection
