Yep, but that is not possible, since ~everything is possible to change dynamically and we cannot expand the SPT on-demand since it is located in physical memory. Having a SPT that can map all of S0 virtual memory would take 8MB of physical memory, which were too much of the available memory back when I wrote that code. Maybe it isn't today when things are mostly run in simh and a different strategy should be used?Another way would be to limit the physical memory to 256M and add support to not map all of physical memory for large-memory machines as a compile-time option.I'd say the rightest thing to do is compute - either mechanically or by hand - what amount of physical memory would put SLR as close as possible to 200000 without going over, then cap physical memory size at that value (preferably with a message).
