Hmmm.  We have used several A3000's running UNIX.  It seems that 8 meg FAST
RAM and 1 meg CHIP is JUST BARELY ENOUGH...  With 4 meg FAST, and 2 CHIP it
is swapping several meg of virtual memory (once Openlook is brought up).

I have not used Amiga UNIX for an extended period of time-- so how do you
put up with 5 meg of RAM?  Isnt compiling a bare/slow?
