Based on study of the source code, I'm fairly sure that 2000 C' requires 32K
for each procesor; on the IOP it's mostly used for buffering. It's hard to
believe that 2000Access would need less.

With source, it should be possible to generate IOP code that supports fewer
ports and needs less memory. Without source, forget it.
