0505 - Summary/Objective
0506 -
050601 - Follow up ref SDS 6 0000, ref SDS 3 0000.
050602 -
050603 - We have not been successful in improving memory managemnet of Medit,
050604 - so using W98 instead of OS2 we only have about 600K if we are lucky. A
050605 - few subject indexes have grown to 100K+ and we have some records,
050606 - e.g., review of Grove's book on 980307, ref SDS 4 0001, that are
050607 - 120K+, all of which causes Medit to run out of memory.
050608 -
050609 -     [On 990912 visited Morris and he was unable to figure out how to
050610 -     emulate OS2 750K RAM feature. ref SDS 9 9766]
050611 -
050612 -     [On 990919 segmented record on Grove. ref SDS 10 0001]
050613 -
050614 - As a result, must reduce demand on memory by disconnecting the feature
050615 - that automatically extends the SDS Schedule.
050616 -
050617 - This is not a big problem for people that use SDS everyday, because
050618 - they are alerted to extend the schedule manually with the File menu,
050619 - when they want to schedule a task on a date that is not in the
050620 - Schedule.
050621 -
050622 - It is a problem for people who do not use the system for periods of
050623 - time, then come back.
050624 -
050625 - With few users, we will ignore this issue for now.

051003 - Follow up ref SDS 6 2330, ref SDS 3 9660.
051004 -
051005 - Line 2290, ref OF 2 6003, -label bRDATE, 80 lines below, unplugged
051006 - code that automatically extends calendar 6 months, so there is at
051007 - least 1 year of days.
051008 -
051009 - This is generally a good idea but is a nusance to keep reducing the
051010 - calendar in order to save RAM.
