Would using an auto program to serve DA memory requests work? Could the auto program somehow wake up once Gem was initialized so it could use the gem pipeline to get requests for memory from DA's and attach them to it's basepage. If this worked,it would seem we could have one auto program handle requests from many DA's. I know this is off- topic from Steve's question,but I'm curious. Actually,I'd guess this is how the non reset proof version of Shadow works. John Henders Vancouver,BC
