More memory problem
	I had this EXACT problem on on 11/70 once upon a time.  The
problem was NOT H/W!  Turns out you had better have the tables for
COREMAP (& SWAPMAP) be the correct sizes, or your performance will
go downhill.  COREMAP is more important, and should be set to be
at least 2*NPROC (otherwise only COREMAP/2 processes will be able
to run without swapping, on the average - especially true on systems
that don't have their expand() routine fixed).
