由ora-04030引申的概念--Virtual address space

Wikipedia:
In computing, a virtual address space ( VAS) or address space is the set of ranges of virtual addresses that an operating system makes available to a process
VAS是一个对进程来说可用的内存地址范围
Microsoft：
The virtual address space of each process can be smaller or larger than the total physical memory available on the computer.
VAS可以小于或者大于全部的可用物理内存
The virtual address space for a process is the set of virtual memory addresses that it can use.
VAS就是进程可用的虚拟内存地址
The address space for each process is private and cannot be accessed by other processes unless it is shared.
这个地址对于其他进程不可访问，是该进程的私有地址。
A virtual address does not represent the actual physical location of an object in memory; instead, the system maintains a page table for each process, which is an internal data structure used to translate virtual addresses into their corresponding physical addresses. Each time a thread references an address, the system translates the virtual address to a physical address.
这个虚拟地址并不是真实的物理内存地址，而是由系统维护的一个page table，page table是一个内部数据结构用于映射对应的物理内存地址。
