Typically only needed to debug out-of-memory errors on Amiga. On an out-of-memory screen, assets loaded into chipram are flagged with *.
Crunched data is never used “live” and is immediately flushed when memory is running low, it’s only held in order to reduce reloading times on Amigas with enough memory to contain it.
