I didnt see the following notions addressed at that link: If a operating system is very short of RAM, could the operating system swap out TBB's RAM cache to hard disk or is that prohibited somehow? Might this also happen if a system goes into Hibernate state (more likely on a laptop)? _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list [email protected] https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
