With respect to the smoke evacuation questions, with all packs running and 2 windows out a 744 will maintain diff (or close to it), so the smoke evac handle wont depressurise the airplane. Its too small a hole.
Without reading the previous comments, I disagree. The pressurization outflow valves are about the same size as cabin windows. There is no way you going to maintain pressure with holes this large.
