Subject: VMM and GigaMEM... NOT AGAIN!!!

Hi all... sorry to bring up the VM topic again, but I'm making a sort
of "help file" which might even turn into an article... one of the
many things I plan on discussing is the use of Virtual Memory.
I would REALLY appreciate it if people using either VMM or GigaMem
could send me a note describing their system and what they had to do
to get the software to run on it. Basically, I'm hoping that I can get
most of the accelerators covered. I'd also like to know if people
think it's worth it. For example, do you get so many page faults that
rendering times are majorly increased?
I'm using an 040/33 from GVP(12 megs ram '882). VMM does not work with
this accelerator fully. One must turn off data caching. It also
crashed my machine in the middle of a render. In the process, it came
really close to trashing my hard drive... it's been a long time since
I've waded through my hard drive with a disk editor, and I plan on
keeping it that way!
So additionally, if someone is also using the aforementioned setup
with success (either VMM or Gigamem) please let me know how! :)
Thanks!
Wes
