I was testing Rick's code up on V5R2.

Aren't user spaces limited to 16m?

>Do you really want to grab 16Meg of memory????

Actually, I do have some processes where I want an arbitrarily large amount
of contiguous memory.  Parsing XML and other large stream files (AFPDS
data!) is an interesting chore when one has to segment the incoming data
into a buffer that is smaller than the logical structure one is trying to
decode.  Terabyte spaces seem to be the ticket here, but I admit I haven't
had much more than a cursory peek at them.
