You still use the PharLap extender under os/2, it's just that PharLap "sees" whatever memory limit you set for that os/2 session. If you set the memory limit to 128meg, PharLap won't try to create its own swap file until you've used up that 128meg. Once 3ds actually allocates more than the physical memory you have on the machine, os/2 creates its own swap file. The advantage to this is that os/2 swapping is a lot faster than PharLaps, and os/2 will free up the swap space once it is deallocated. LAM
