I don't think you'd find it trivial. At the same time, I don't want to discourage you from doing what you can. Modern OSs are fairly successful. I think a lot of people aren't aware that disk operations are orders of magnitude slower than memory operations because of that success. Forcing a dump of the whole thing, if it didn't clear the cache, would be a write-through op and not necessarily incur the time expense of forcing a dump AND clearing cache.
Dang it, you're going to mess around and pique my interest and make me look at things that I haven't bothered with for years. Bad Sane, bad Sane.
