The speed up in the fork routines comes from a vastly improved
VMS process creation routine. It used to take up to 1/4 second
to spawn a new process. VMS was constructing the new image in
a swap-file, then swapping it in. It is now done by creating
a memory image in memory.

It would be useful to publish the new fork routines. Untilis
was asking another $200 for a new copy of EUNICE.
