Hello-

        I am working on an application that uses grio (guaranteed rate i/o) to load
frames of real time video into a buffer for display. Grio requires direct i/o,
which in turn requires a memaligned buffer. I would like to be able to split app
off into its own process. This, of course, requires a shared memory arena.

Does performer have a way to simulate usmemalign with a performer arena?
(usmemalign + performer arena = crash)

Thanks,
Markus Haas
