Thanks.  How does this look then?

    * js/win32-mmap (2016-04-22) 3 commits
      (merged to 'next' on 2016-04-22 at cd39c60)
     + mmap(win32): avoid expensive fstat() call
     + mmap(win32): avoid copy-on-write when it is unnecessary
     + win32mmap: set errno appropriately

     Will merge to 'master'.

Reducing paging file consumption still falls into optimization in my
