distributed shared memory

[Simon Lok]

Hi,

Is there a distributed shared memory toolkit / API / SDK available
for C#? I am looking for the C# equivalent of the JSDT
(http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/jsdt/) where basically
one has shared byte arrays across many JVMs.

I guess I could "write it myself" by layering a token ring architecture
over .NET remoting, but that would probably be more pain that it
is worth... at least for me right now.

Why not just remote a shared class with public methods/properites and use
one of the locking methods to lock the shared resource?

Because then each time I read it would make a network access. Not
very useful if for example, the shared memory is used in a rendering
loop that needs to run at least 45 times per second.

I am looking for a way to do "replicated" memory I guess, exactly
what JSDT does, because it feeds some of our graphics stuff, sometimes
augmented reality stuff and that rules out a remoted object.
