I'm using it with -mx182m and it works just fine. I've got 128m physical and
the same amount of virtual memory. Well, your the only constraints seem to be
related to your os and of course your hardware.
Just to be correct: Actually you don't allocate memory with this option.
Memory is allocated dynamically at runtime. I heared people are praising a
daemon called "malloc" ;)

[...ms thingies...]

IMHO it is interesting that you _have_ an option like this, it points out that
MS' products lack it. But it's not my desire nor the intention of this list to
discuss the weaknesses of some os.
