The private area size can be displayed by this TSO TEST command:

L 224.%+30?+40
7FF16E50.  007FA000

The result, hex 007FA000, varies of course from system to system.
 
This is the same field, LDASIZA, shown by the IPLINFO exec.

I assembled variations of a 24-bit program with different sizes and attempted 
to run them, and the largest program that would load on this system and not get 
the S106-C abend had a size of 00726000 (hex), or about 848K less than the 
private area size of 007FA000.

If I increased the program size by 4K, to 00727000, it got the S106-C abend.

A below-the-line program having the size of 00752958 (hex), like the DFHEISUP 
program shown in an earlier post by John Chase, would definitely get the S106-C 
abend on the system I use. There would be no way around it except to find a way 
to increase the private area size.
