That's not the job of the lowmem handler - it's designed only to help when an
allocation fails. It's at the same level as the system (ramlib) that frees
unused libraries. Infact - ramlib has a low mem handler at priority 0..
I suppose you could hack the OS to call low mem routines if an AllocMem(
val+(TotalMem(allocflags)*0.25)) fails, but then that 25% of memory is likely
to never be used by anything.
