Yeah, the creator of MOO (Stephan White) moved on and created CoolMUD, 
which is (in an abstract simple way) basically disk based MOO, although 
direct compatability is not in the picture.

which I've been working on recently.  A cold driver will generally stay 
in 2-5 megs of ram, depending upon how many people are connected, how 
many active objects there are, and how well designed the core is (more
