I haven't been reading this regularly, but I've got a problem I hope
someone else has already solved.  It seems the SE/30 I work on has 
2 meg and when I'm in multi-finder, the usable stack decreases slowly
after each program I run.  After the system and the jillion of now
vital inits are loaded, I have just over 1.2 meg left, and a program 
I use often takes 1.2 meg and no less.  

Is there an already existing program (or hack) which 'flushes' the 
stack, to the fresh-from-bootup state? If not, does anyone have an
idea or shortcut I could use to hack something like this up myself?
I realize that this would not be a tool for the weak of heart, but 
I'm willing to take a chance.  Boot-up seems to take years.
E-mail preferred.
