mmu.library initialization consumes ~1.5MB?!

[AmigaMance]

Hi.
 I don't use the MMULib version of 68040.library or anything else from the archive. I just want to use this command
http://aminet.net/package/util/boot/MuFastChip
to boost Chip-RAM access a little and also the MMU switch of SystemPatch to protect its patches from random memory trashing.
 Both seems to work, but the problem is that just the initialization of the mmu.library eats about 1.5 MB of memory! Is this normal?
 None of these commands is responsible for this. Even loading and locking the library in memory with MuLockLib does this. The library itself is 45.2 KBs long.
 At, least in my case. this is too much memory for just a small benefit and i want to know whether this is normal or not.

 Edit: I wonder if it re-remaps the ROM into Fast-RAM. That would be a waste, since i already soft-kick a ROM image with BlizKick..

I boot to cli with 29664488 total with the mmu.library. (2meg chip 32 fast)
And boot with 29673728 without 9240 should work out to molib and mmu i guess, binary being 864 lib being 44780

 Thanks. I tried to load the library with molib and nothing else. Memory consumption is still the same.. :/

What processor libs are you using?

 I have flashed my BPPC with the latest FlashROM.

IIRC, the latest phase5 libraries had the same function as MuFastChip built in.

 That's what i thought too! But, is this really true?

 Check out the 3rd line.

Also, busTest
http://aminet.net/package/util/moni/bustest
reports a small increase in Chip-RAM access, but it could be statistical.
And i'd still like to protect the patches of SystemPatch, too.

[AmigaMance]

Yes

 Ok then.
I still wonder why this doesn't happen with mike-'s setup though.

[AmigaMance]

MMU's perform virtual to physical address mapping. They do this using page tables. Those tables are stored in RAM (where else?).

The more RAM you have in your system, the more pages need to be mapped and so the larger the page table gets.

 Hmm.. I have 128MB of fast ram while mike- has 32MB.
If i have understood you correctly, this explains why MMU occupies so much RAM in my case. :-?
 Thanks!

@Karlos

Perhaps your kickstart has also been remapped by mmu.library?

 This is what i was pondering about in the first post:

Edit: I wonder if it re-remaps the ROM into Fast-RAM. That would be a waste, since i already soft-kick a ROM image with BlizKick..

 I'm not running any other MuTools that are indented to do this, like MuMapRom or anything, but i can't tell if this happens or not.
 How can i check this? Does the output of MuScan give you any clue?

[AmigaMance]

I have already tried this. See post #6

@Piru
 Then i can't explain the small performance boost that bustest reported. I guess it was indeed statistical.
