I hope this comes out OK, it's the first time I've written to Notes.

Back when I had 4 MB RAM, I got 'Insufficient Memory' frequently. And,
the application of interest would not start, in spite of repeated
attempts. STVW was very predictable in this regard. I believe it didn't
limit itself to this behavior to occurring only "after exiting Smalltalk"
It was also sluggish.


Then, I got an extra 4 MB for a total of 8, and have not any problems.
The performance is also much better.


BTW, it's an HP Vectra RS25C (25 MHz 386, 64 K cache I think, 300 MB disc).
