Hi,

Suppose I have an executable of size 60MB and I want to execute it on
android(ARM), will 60MB be allocated to load the code onto the RAM?

I remember studying about demand paging in Linux kernel. Is it
relevant here? If yes, is it implemented in Linux kernels used in
Android?

Also, is there a config with which i can enable or disable the configs.

I posted the same on SO. Answer it either place. Thank you.
