> only thing this discussion has showed me is that more people need Computer Science degrees again
You have too much faith in unis. Mine did not teach me about mmap at all.

I say this to highlight the parent comment. I'm essentially in a computer science program and we have learned absolutely 0 about paging or memory in any of my required courses. We practically don't touch OS anything in any of the classes. That's not to say the courses for that aren't offered but they aren't part of the core curriculum and over my time in my program, they've mostly not been offered due to lack of student interest.
I did learn how to use linked lists like a champion though!
