Subject:	Re: GnuC memory allocation and swapping do disk.

(1) The EMS memory is what go32 is using, which is why you start with
only 4M and not 16M.

(2) When you call malloc, that doesn't actually *use* memory.  It just
*reserves* it.  You could malloc 100Mb and not use it, and still have
most of your physical memory available.  If you want to *use* the
memory, call memset() to fill it with zeros or something.
