    I’d call that a file loaded to memory

      Most files are loaded to memory in order to make any kind of use out of them. I.e. read/write operations.

        That’s true! I supposed it would be more precise to say that all processes are files loaded to memory, but not all files loaded to memory are processes. Sort of like the whole arachnids / spiders situation.
