Fixed addresses were proposed as workaround by someone from Microsoft and
they worked fine for 32-bit builds.
I'm not sure if removing them would help for 64-bit in general. It may work
on some systems/builds and not on the others.
It just can't be guaranteed to work with that windows API.
In case wincache uses some different approach to create shared memory, and
it may guarantee multiple processes to map shared segment into the same
address space, we should use it.
Thanks. Dmitry.
