I believe there is a shareware memory controller for the mac called
RamCharger which will allocate or de-allocate ram dynamically. I have it
somewhere among my mountain of cd's which are uncatalogued and I remember
trying it out for a while but it did not get along with one of my maths
pplications - and crashing after writing but before saving a difficult
formula brings on system rage. Do a google for it and try it - if it
still exists and is still compatible - I think it will defrag on the fly.
