Actually, it is possible to exceed that on 32-bit Windows Server 2003
with a switch at system startup.

That said, I've never bothered to do this, and am not sure it would be
a great idea anyway.

As for "max heap size" in general, I don't think there's anything
CF-specific about it. CF will use whatever is available if it needs to
use it, but heap size is completely controlled by the JVM.
