According to the manual Software Lookaside Buffers may help the
performance of Precision Architecture Machines with small 
Hardware TLBs. Perhaps someone from HP would give an assessment
of the adequacy of the TLB on the HP-635. Suggested values for 
the 'nstlbe' kernel config parameter would also be welcolmed.

			Thanks in advance
