Subject: Documenting heap_chunk_in_mb
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed

Hi,

I wanted to respond to Narendira Kumar about setting / increasing the 
heap_chunk_in_mb registry entry to address his issues compiling a very 
large C source file.

However, when I went to search on Google, there were scant fragments on 
this topic still indexed. Then I turned to the Cygwin documentation and 
found nothing at all. I searched the RTF documents in Word, the PDF 
documents in Acrobat and grepped in all the documentation files.

Can this be worked in somewhere?

Being a decent technical writer, I would gladly do it myself, if:

1) I knew the details
2) I knew where in the documentation they should go
3) The primary documentation was something I knew how to write and / or for 
which I had the tools. Specifically, if SGML is the primary documentation 
source, I don't know how to write it.
3a) If there are publically available DocBook tools, I'd gladly acquire and 
learn to use them--I want to migrate away from MS software, anyway.

1 is not currently true, so I'd have to read the source or be educated. I 
could probably figure out 2 (or simply be told) but I'm totally in the dark 
about 3.
