   Before I worked with TKB overlays, I worked with IBM OS 360 overlays.
   Same concept, more difficult implementation.

   Upgrading from an 11/34 to an 11/44 allowed us to move from disk
   redident to memory resident overlays.  Just a small detail in the
   overlay information, but such an improvement in performance.
