 The Low Level Persistence Library offers access to persistent memory using `MemoryBlocks` allocated from
 a persistent Heap.

 Alternatively, for use with older kernels, create a tmpfs partition as follows (as root):
    ```
-   $ mount -t tmpfs -o size=8G tmpfs /mnt/mem  # creates a 8GB tmpfs partition
+   $ mount -t tmpfs -o size=4G tmpfs /mnt/mem  # creates a 4GB tmpfs partition
    $ chmod -R a+rw /mnt/mem                    # enables read/write permissions to all users

 ## CONTRIBUTING ##
-Thanks for your interest! Right now, architectural changes are still happening in the
-project.  This makes it difficult to contribute code and difficult to effectively process pull
-requests.  We expect these changes to settle out around March of this year and we look forward to
-code contributions once this happens.  We will update this README then.
+Thanks for your interest! Please see the CONTRIBUTING.md document for information on how to contribute.
