[K12OSN] Question about shared memory usage in K12LTSP

[Brian Chase]

I have read in the K12LTSP distro's documentation that you 
can allow workstations to run applications using their own 
RAM.  From what I can tell, that's all or nothing, hoping 
I'm wrong.

When you configure LTSP to run applications locally on a 
given workstation, is the system smart enough to borrow 
memory from the server for larger applications that the thin 
client doesn't have enough memory to run, or is it stuck 
with the local RAM to try and get everything done forevermore?

Anyone with direct experience enabling LTSP thin clients to 
run applications locally including performance observations, 
any measurements taken, and overall operational 
improvements, I'd be most interested in hearing about them.
