in reply to @cathoderaydude's post:

Mac classic memory management was bad and dumb, there was a lot of room make it better. If you wrap it with a virtual memory system, you can finally swap out cold stuff, you can demand page in hot stuff. You can reclaim stuff like "every program has to have the absolute worst case stack size preallocated, because I can never move or resize it later". Macos had a real problem with "fragmented memory", where it has enough memory to satisfy a big request, but it's not all contiguous so too bad. Virtual memory systems love building big contiguous allotments out of little scraps of memory.

I think for a lot of use cases, it wouldn't be a "Doubler". But if you need that one drawing program that malloc's a big buffer and vanilla Macos is too scatterbrained for that, the doubler would probably go a long way.
