Slightly off-topic, but I wonder if you could use mmap to give your app more 
address space? Create a big empty file, mmap it as writeable, then use a custom 
allocator to manage memory in the mapped space.

(This doesn’t actually give you more RAM; the mapped address space will tend to 
get paged out to storage so it’ll definitely be slower than real RAM, but it’s 
better than crashing!)
