+ *
+ * The Init() method initializes a read-write memory mapped region of the given
+ * size, which can be initialized with arbitrary data. The Finalize() method
+ * remaps that region as read-only (and backs it with a read-only file
+ * descriptor), and initializes an AutoMemMap with the new contents.
+ *
+ * The file descriptor for the resulting AutoMemMap can be shared among
+ * processes, to safely access a shared, read-only copy of the data snapshot.
