I was wondering - when building assets you could pre-bake them to fixed addresses and let virtual memory allocate real memory at that space. No heap fragmentations from level loading/onloading!

I have been pushing related ideas for over a decade. There are big wins to be had by more tightly coupling high performance IO and getting rid of “loading”. We may yet push on this for mobile VR.
