That seems like the default 16MB that Windows 95 lets you use.

Is that Windows 95?  If so, the correct way to set the DPMI memory is NOT 
by creating a swap file, but by typing the value 65535 in the DPMI memory 
dialog of the DOS box property sheets.  The DJGPP FAQ list explains more 
about this in section 15.6

See sections 6.4, 15.8 and 15.9 of the FAQ.

The latest version of the DJGPP FAQ list is available as v2/faq210b.zip 
from the same place you get DJGPP.
