ISSUE/PROBLEM
Loading CLIENT and SERVER into Upper Memory
Memory managers which load terminate-stay-resident programs
(TSR's) such as CLIENT.EXE and SERVER.EXE into upper memory
reserve a fixed length block of memory to load the program. As
long as the program is the same size in memory as it is on disk,
there will be no memory conflict. However, SERVER.EXE is
actually larger when it is loaded than it is on disk. Since
SERVER.EXE is larger, memory managers that do not account for
such growth may load SERVER into too small of a memory block.
This can cause memory corruption and the computer to hang. To
avoid this type of problem, we suggest that you do not load
SERVER into upper memory. CLIENT does not grow when loaded so it
can be loaded "high".
