- I have come to the same conclusion, myself, via a different route. I run
- several DOS apps from the Novell Lan using the Requester. After I turned
- background execution off, my memory problems went away. I concluded that with
- background execution on, the active netware requester was preventing anything
- from being swapped (because it was "active") and i was running out of memory.
