    It would be really easy to test this.

    Write a program that malloc's 32MB of space and touches it,
    then sleeps 10 seconds and forks, with both child and parent
    sleeping afterwords.  ( the parent and the forked child should
    not touch the memory after the fork occurs ).

    Do a pstat -s before, after the initial touch, and after
    the fork.  If you do not see the reserved swap space jump
    by 32MB after the fork, it isn't what you thought it was.
