OSOTWSWP - SWAPPER-FILE SIZE IS LARGER IN OS/2 WARP
01/11/96
=======================================================================
Swapper-File Size Is Larger in OS/2 Warp
=======================================================================
Please Read Entire Document for Full Explanation of Procedures
--------------------------------------------------------------
DESCRIPTION
The Swapper file is larger in OS/2 Warp than in previous OS/2 releases.
RESOLUTION
In previous versions of OS/2, DLL code was never copied to the Swapper
file. In OS/2 Warp, code for system DLLs can be written to the Swapper
file and, during startup, PMMERGE, DOSCALL1, PMGPI, PMWP, and PMVIOP
are swapped out. This means an overall increase in the size of the
Swapper file, and an increase in overall system performance.
The most significant change is how system DLLs are loaded and what is
now valid data for swapping. System DLLs include:
DISPLAY SOM PMMERGE PMWP
DOSCALL1 PMATM PMMLE
IBMDEV32 PMCTLS PMSPL
IBMVGA32 PMGPI PMVIOP
