VMS Help  —  LINK  DZRO_MIN
    Alpha and VAX systems.

    Specifies the minimum number of contiguous, uninitialized pages
    that the linker must find in an image section before it can
    extract the pages from the image section and place them in a
    newly created demand-zero image section. By creating demand-zero
    image sections (image sections that do not contain initialized
    data), the linker can reduce the size of images.

    Format

      DZRO_MIN=number-of-pages

1  –  Option Values

 number-of-pages

    Specifies the minimum number of contiguous pages.

    For VAX linking, the linker, by default, uses a minimum of 5
    pages. Each VAX page equals 512 bytes.

    For Alpha linking, the linker, by default, uses a minimum of 1
    page. The size of an Alpha page is CPU-specific. The initial set
    of Alpha systems uses an 8 KB page. The page size used is that of
    the current link operation. (See the /BPAGE qualifier.)

    The number of pages must be equal to or greater than the value
    specified in the parameter.
