}    I believe what you're looking for is a working set scheduler. In a
}nutshell, this type of scheduler pages a job against itself rather than
}against the system (i.e. the pool of available pages belongs to the process
}(rather than the system) and is of a size set by the system when then process
}is created). Unfortunately, I can't think of an available OS that uses a WS
}scheduler off the top of my head (that doesn't mean they don't exist!). Good
}luck.
