Those people who have stupid platforms that require major chunks of memory should have been paying attention and evaluated the patch six months ago.
They partly did that, and asked some questions about how to solve it. They got answers, and then nothing happened. And it's somehow my problem that they did nothing?
*They* should have done more to help instead of ignoring the issue, then we'd know where things were _before_ the patch was originally merged.
Not my problem.
