    The information on GemStone seems incorrect.
    https://gemtalksystems.com/licensing/
    What I read there is that the Limited (email address required)
    license supports 50 GB of (on-disk) objects, with a 2GB shared
    page cache.


On the one hand, the license has changed starting in GemStone version 3.2. On the other hand, the "memory" limit you are talking about is called Share Page Cache and it's more a "soft" limit in the sense that is simply a cache of the persistent objects brought from disk. If you have a small "cache" the performance will be bad because of trashing (objects going and coming back from disk) but it doesn't mean the program won't be able to run because it doesn't fit.

Free GemStone version involves a 2GB SPC. That is normally enough for small/medium apps.

That is completely different as the "memory" limit for Pharo.
