I know it addresses it. Unfortunately, I didn't understand a word of it. Perhaps I'm not as brilliant as you. Or, perhaps too old (yeah, they did not teach me Unix when I went to school in the sixties, because Unix did not exist yet). But please don't tell me that I did not read it, when I did over and over, and it all sounded Greek to me. I am starting to understand some of it after reading messages from people who were willing to help instead of throwing out accusations. It is still not clear, but I think I have gotten enough advice to do further experimenting with it. BTW, as for the suggestion to use brk: All I get from it is an error. I noticed that even the C function of the same name does not use the brk system call.
