The unix VM and apparently also the Mac VM has an option -memory that allows
you to set a heap size:
[adrian:/Applications/Squeak 4.2.3beta1U.app/Contents/MacOS] ./Squeak\ VM\ Opt
-help
Usage: ./Squeak VM Opt [<option>...] [<imageName> [<argument>...]]
./Squeak VM Opt [<option>...] -- [<argument>...]
Common <option>s:
-help print this help message, then exit
-memory <size>[mk] use fixed heap size (added to image size)
-pathenc <enc> set encoding for pathnames (default: macintosh)
-headless run in headless (no window) mode (default: false)
Notes:
<imageName> defaults to `Squeak.image'.
If `-memory' is not specified then the heap will grow dynamically.
<argument>s are ignored, but are processed by the Squeak image.
The first <argument> normally names a Squeak `script' to execute.
Precede <arguments> by `--' to use default image.
