44  * The time for a process to be blocked before being very swappable.

46  * amount of real time.  You probably shouldn't change this;
47  * it is used in subtle ways (fractions and multiples of it are, that is, like
48  * half of a ``long time'', almost a long time, etc.)

55  * A swapped in process is given a small amount of core without being bothered
56  * by the page replacement algorithm.  Basically this says that if you are
57  * swapped in you deserve some resources.  We protect the last SAFERSS
58  * pages against paging and will just swap you out rather than paging you.
59  * Note that each process has at least UPAGES+CLSIZE pages which are not
60  * paged anyways (this is currently 8+2=10 pages or 5k bytes), so this
61  * number just means a swapped in process is given around 25k bytes.
62  * Just for fun: current memory prices are 4600$ a megabyte on VAX (4/22/81),
63  * so we loan each swapped in process memory worth 100$, or just admit
64  * that we don't consider it worthwhile and swap it out to disk which costs
65  * $30/mb or about $0.75.
66  * Update: memory prices have changed recently (9/96). At the current
67  * value of $6 per megabyte, we lend each swapped in process memory worth
68  * $0.15, or just admit that we don't consider it worthwhile and swap it out
69  * to disk which costs $0.20/MB, or just under half a cent.
