I am using ptrace calls on perpetually dormant processes to get extended
print symbol memory for a LISP interpreter.  Unfortunatly, although this
technique gets me a great deal of auxillary memory, it is very hard on my
OS, causing an ls run by another user to take a little over 4 minutes
of real time.  IS THERE ANOTHER WAY TO GET LOTS OF REAL DATA MEMORY??
