Under maxmem, it says:

'maxmemtot' 'mmt'       number  (default between 2048 and 10240 (system
                                 dependent) or half the amount of memory
                                 available)
                        global
                        {not in Vi}
        Maximum amount of memory (in Kbyte) to use for all buffers together.
        Maximum value 2000000.  Use this to work without a limit.  Also see
        'maxmem'.
----
 1 minor unclarity:

1) 2048-10240 Bytes is awfully small for today's systems...should this
    number be said to be in 'KB'?  Maybe it should start defaulting to 'MB'
    (with appropriate default changes -- or allow 'units' to be specified?
    like MB/mb or tb/TB?

2) One minor (outdated) statement: "Maximum value=2000000" -- that doesn't
    apply to 64 bit machines.  I'm logged in remotely to a linux box running
    gvim and 'maxmem' shows about 3x that amount.


Subnote:

    Is this the correct place to report bugs, or is there a bug database
I should file things in?  

tnx,
