Subject:	memory limitation for cygwin apps
Mime-Version:	1.0

I have 512 MB RAM but my application (openDX) will not access more than 24 
MB (even though its docum'n says it will grab 7/8 of free RAM by default). 
I have seen postings by other users with different apps (e.g. ImageMagick) 
that were also limited to 24 MB under cygwin.

Are there some settings I can tweak so that cygwin will allocate a decent 
amount of RAM to applications running on it?

Regards,
