<EM>"RVM provides an unstructured recoverable virtual memory.  The
recoverable storage is represented by Unix files or disk partitions
that applications can map at page granularity into the address space
of a process.  Simple, non-nested atomic transactions guarantee
permanence of changes to recoverable storage across system crashes.
Applications can schedule transaction logging actions to enhance
performance.  The design stresses simplicity, ease of use, and high
performance.  Unix compatibility is standard, while optional
Mach-specific extensions are supported for additional flexibility and
performance.  RVM has been extensively used in the clients and servers
of the Coda File System, and in the Venari system.",</EM>
