As in raw shared memory? Yes, using MappedByteBuffers on a common file.
In fact this works already between separate JVMs, even without
isolates ... tho' the ability to copy descriptor bearing objects (ie.
RandomAccessFiles) between isolates via links and use links for
synchronization makes using this technique somewhat more elegant.
