I have already started incorporating GetNamedDSA into my code to display memory context statistics. A potential future enhancement could be allowing GetNamedDSHASH to accept an existing DSA name. This would enable the DSHASH to reuse a DSA area instead of creating a new one each time. I plan to use this registry to store DSA pointers that all belong to the same DSA area, and this enhancement would be particularly beneficial. If you find this idea useful, I would be interested in working on it. Thank you, Rahila Syed
