Yes, but this topic was raised multiple times already. Maybe we should stop wasting time on it? All you need to do, to change the limit, go to platforms/win32/vm/sqWin32Alloc.h And change this: #ifndef MAX_VIRTUAL_MEMORY #define MAX_VIRTUAL_MEMORY 512*1024*1024 #endif So, if you want more, build VM with any limit you see fit. But there's a reason why in official VM its 512. > Cheers, > Doru -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko.
