I have a bunch of questions. Is it static, once built? How do you build it? How do you get to entries? How long is it in memory? How much memory is on the system?
All of the answers to the above, plus more, will drive what the correct design might be. A more extensive description of the situation will result in more focused answers.

This table has a maximum size of 35,000 entries. I am thinking about using cells for this table but concerned on the impact to the system getting over a 1 gigabyte of storage (35K*32K). I am putting this cell pool above the bar but what about backing this storage with AUX and page faults? Should I be concerned? If I don’t use a cell pool the memory usage is around 30M. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ATTENTION: ----- The information contained in this message (including any files transmitted with this message) may contain proprietary, trade secret or other confidential and/or legally privileged information.
