In the VMS/WinNT way, each memory section is defined as either shared
or private when created and cannot be changed. This allows optimizations
in page table and page file handling.
Interesting. Do you happen to have a pointer for further reading
about it?
*nix needs to maintain various data structures to support forking
memory just in case it happens.
I can't imagine what those datastructures would be (which might be just
another way to say that I was brought up on POSIX and can't imagine the
world differently).
