Are device drivers swapped out when not in use or are they locked in
memory?  We're trying to find out the cost (in RAM) of installing
some network software.  If they get swapped out, there's no problem.
If they don't, and the amount of memory they use is nontrivial, we
need to consider being more selective about which machines get it.

To be more specific, we're considering the TCP/IP and OS/2 Peer that
come with Warp Connect.

Thanks for any help.
