Does file-mapping a memory allocation work around RAM limits?

Our iOS app works with very large data buffers (hundreds of MB). As you can imagine, we run into issues at times. I saw some sample code that used this technique, and it got me wondering if this actually works around the 600 MB limitation of some iOS devices (which begs another question: doss
