# To subscribers of the xforms list from Joel <joel@dabbles-n-doodads.com> :
First I want a quick memory test that can be run from
Linux as opposed to an offline test. The rest of the
systems performance is not an issue nor is the fact
that all of the memory can't be tested. Second
application is the fact that grabbing memory is a
system resource hit.
Thanks
Joel
