Looks like Demand Paging will be coming soon to Symbian 60 v3 phones. This is good news as my Nokia N95 has a slow 35 seconds boot up time at the moment and it can be faster at 22 seconds if Demand Paging is working on it. According to Symbianguru , “Demand Paging is somewhat like a virtual memory application, and essentially manages memory alot more efficiently.” Sounds like a good way to make surfing on the phone browser a faster routine.

See below for the video to explain Demand Paging :

Here’s a quick video demonstrating Demand Paging on the Nokia N95 (original version). You can see that it increases bootup times, application load times, and, more importantly, RAM usage. Thus, with Demand Paging, you can open up a massive application such as the phone’s browser, and only use up minimal RAM. Also, more RAM is available after you close the app, as well.
