Sam Decker says:

	If you open and close the narrator then the system will expunge
it on an as needed basis.  This makes the 23k memory hit somewhat more
palitable.  The open/close over head is rather small (unless the device
needs to be loaded from disk).

	While your Amiga is speaking more than 50% of the CPU is being
used to speak (speech runs at a high priority).
