I have an interesting problem. I need to implement a virtual memory system that will manage about 2 to 3 megabytes of data and swap them in bit by bit. I was wondering if it is a good idea to use the Resource Manager to do this by creating my own type of data resource and then letting it do the swapping? Has anyone tried this? Is this brain dead?

Okay, I just went poking through the Tech Reports and found Tech Note 203 which describes all sorts of ways to abuse the Resource Manager. It sez that having too many resources degrades performance. I want to store the 2-3 megabytes in about 36-76 chunks. Thats about 100k per chunk. Is this "acceptable". Does anyone have experience with this sort of performance?
