Well, I can :)
Libraries are loaded into the memory only once, no matter how many processes
use them. Thus the memory used for the library is shared. This heavily
reduces memory needs for a system.
I think, the current free pascal concept (avoiding C libraries, mainly libc)
is usable only because on a tipical system only a few pascal processes run
at once; the rest of the system is written in C, so enough memory remains to
run the pascal programs :)
