Does anyone know if there is a programmatic way of switching VM on and off, similar to the way Linux does it? I've good reason to do this (honest!) and need some way to disable VM for the duration of running my app or at the least, ensure it doesn't flush to disk at the wrong moment. AFAIK, no OS that supports VM has such a feature. How would you deal, within your app, with this problem: you are running, you "turn off VM", the next instruction to be executed in your app lies at the start of a page that, oops, is paged out? There may be more reasonable ways to solve your problem. Can you be more specific about what you are trying to do? This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
