Subject line says it all. Enquiring Mac/music hackers want to know.

According to John Worthington, version 2.0 contains the necessary
calls to the system to lock itself in memory when System 7
is using Virtual Memory. Of course, no MIDI software contains
these calls yet, but you're going to be writing your own, so
you don't care, right?  Although I haven't actually dealt
with the issue, you can be a pig and call the "process manager"
to find out the starting and ending address of your program
and request that the entire area be locked out. This will 
make your program MM and VM compatible.
