Apparently, the vm allocates MAX_VIRTUAL_MEMORY and reduces by steps
of 128M until it
succeeds.
so I suppose it could be possible to allocate 2Gb and see how it runs
on a 1Gb system and if this is not too much stress for
the system (thinking of the pagefile) ?
Tudor is your vm a cog or non cog vm ?

Hi,
Should I to understand that the only way to enable more memory
is to recompile the VM? Does that mean that there is no way to
pass this information as a parameter like we can on Mac?
As far as I know you can pass a parameter, but even so, it won't
be able to allocate more than 512MB.
I can compile the VM for you with this change in 5 minutes. But I
am not sure that such simple code would make it work. I think such
limit is there because of something. Otherwise, it sounds stupid
imposing a limit just because.
The problem is that I cannot recompile the VM because I have
no access to a Windows machine. Is there one available that
provides more memory?
I don't think so, but start cc'ing the VM mailing list. You'd
probably receive more help.
Cheers
