vi core dumping on Sun 2 (fixed, but would like explanations)

[Chris Torek]

(This is not an attempt at an explanation.)  The sticky bit doesn't
keep things in core; it keeps them around in swap space once they've
made it out there.  (They will hang around in the buffer cache for
a short while, but at 200K (for a 2M Sun) that isn't usually very
long.)
