BTW - a simple example of how this would be useful is if I was using
The GIMP (http://www.gimp.org/) under Linux and then closed it down
when I'd finished, its still actually sitting in RAM, and if I start
it up again it will come back from RAM instead of having to be loaded
into memory again.
Apologies for the poor grammar in the previous message.
