Oops! You are right - the should be the other way around. BTW, we
estimate switching to perl malloc will save about 2.8Gb of memory for
our particular 3000 process example - however, in the short term we've
DR'ed in a couple of extra system boards on the E10K - giving a total of
36 CPUs and 18Gb of memory :-) I'm also going to try the trick of
loading the modules in the parent & then forking lots of children to
figure out what amount of memory we can save that way as well.
