please note the state of #11, that is what is reflected i the difference
between line 7 and 8 in the MOL settings, versus 7 and 8 in the "real"
settings. this is actually not a good thing, you are using Mac virtual
memory on top of MOLs/Linux virtual memory. Turn the virtual memory off in
the MacOS memory control panel when in MOL.
