Memory Windows on 64 bit HPUX 11.0

Has anyone used the memory windows feature of HPUX 11, the solution for 32-bit applications to use more than 1.75GB of shared memory (on 64bit OS)?

(Yes, basically you can run 32 bit oracle on 64 bit OS and make use of the shared memory more than 1.75GB - not single instance, of course, each memory window can have up to 1.75GB; enable memory windows by changing the kernel parameter max_mem_windows)

I would like to know the problems and restrictions. Is there another way not to have to prefix all commands referencing the private window with "setmemwindow -i id"?

Any idea when Oracle will certify the use of Memory Windows?

Thanks!
