A word of caution to the less experienced Zoomer users:
By exersizing this trick, the user is "fooling" the Zoomer's memory
manager into believing that it has more user memory than it really
does, and effectively defeating the app-swapping model. Due to the
dynamic nature of the Geos Operating System, apps are loaded without
immediately taking up their maximum memory allocation. However,
during operation, each app will place additional demands on the memory
manager and expect those demands to be honored. By getting more
apps to run on the Zoomer than was intended, the user is
guaranteed to cause a real "out of memory" condition, requiring
a system reboot. This may result in loss of some data (particularly,
data which was just entered, but hasn't had the opportunity to be
saved out). The Zoomer apps were designed to avoid this condition, but
only as long as the "maxTotalHeapSpace" setting is sincere.
Good luck and happy Zooming,
