- ...lab
- We expect that more main memory will
be available in places that have lighter load. Our workstations are
heavily used running VERILOG simulations for most of the time.

- ...page.
- Note that since the
parity page is computed by the client, it is not necessary to wait
for acknowledgments from the servers before transfering the parity
page in order to be able to recover from a single server crash.

- However, the old version of the
page is not deleted from the server's memory, because if it
were, the old parity page should be updated, leading to more page
transfers.

- ...workstations.
- One
could argue that an X-window environment and an editor, induce
almost no load on the workstation. But, this is exactly the point:
a typical workstation, even when it is used, it is very lightly loaded.
The rest of the workstations that are heavily loaded do not
donate their main memory for remote paging.
