I don't know exactly what you need, are asking for, or the nature of
your problem, so I'll just suggest some debug channels: +wave,+dsound,
+tid,+timestamp

I've never really looked into this IMAGE_DIRECTORY_ENTRY_LOAD_CONFIG
thing. But I doubt there are any grave consequences. Some quick searches
make it sound to me like it should only matter at all to multiprocessor
systems.

The working set is the term for how much physical RAM (as opposed to
virtual memory) the process may use, should use, or is using. If the
process's memory usage is higher than the maximum working set, things
get swapped to disk, instead of allocating more physical RAM. Since this
is mostly just a Windows performance-tuning feature, there shouldn't be
any real consequences to this being unimplemented.
