`-S'
====

   Do _not_ lock the running executable pages of Amd into memory.  To
improve Amd's performance, systems that support the plock(3) call lock
the Amd process into memory.  This way there is less chance the
operating system will schedule, page out, and swap the Amd process as
needed.  This tends to improve Amd's performance, at the cost of
reserving the memory used by the Amd process (making it unavailable for
other processes).  If this behavior is not desired, use the `-S' option.
