VM problems
Each memory access requires 2 memory accesses
1st to read the table
2nd to access the page frame in physical memory.
Another issue is size of page table for large systems.
4 GB (2^32) Virtual memory space.
32 MB (2^25) Physical memory.
2 KB (2^11) page and frame size (equal to small cluster).
2^32/2^11 = 2^21 2 M. slots. 2^25/2^11 = 2^14 (14 bit pointer)
Table size:
2 M. * (14 bit pointer + 1 bit P/A flag + 1 bit dirty flag +)
>= 4 MB of storage.
Too big to be practical.
