Hurricane and RAM Doubler let Windows 3.11 run more programs at once; SoftRAM and MagnaRAM did not.
On both an 8-MB Sharp PC-8800 notebook (75-MHz DX4) and a 16-MB Zeos Pantera (60-MHz Pentium), Windows 95 loaded the most programs into RAM. But more thorough memory management does exact an initial loading penalty. The size of the block representing each application is proportional to the memory resources consumed, as reported by Microsoft's Sysmeter utility.

is
theoretical--and no language better exemplifies this than C++.
