This is basically what is happening currently when scripts in SIM are 
using more memory than SIM have available - it starts swapping memory to 
file. And because this is slow - it will lead to ebil lag monsters.

Problem with "moving scripts that are using more memory available" is 
problematic - like how you decide what script is using too much memory? 
And if you can detect - how you decide what scripts from those "bad 
scripts" are moved to slower "lag" thread?
