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

I've 256MB RAM and more than 4GB of free disk space, so I settled the 
maximum dimension of the virtual memory at 3GB (under w2k) and the 
heap_chunk_in_mb at 2GB (using regedt32).
Nevertheless the bash does not start and gives a "win32 error 8".
The maximum value accepted for heap_chunk_in_mb (fixed the value for the 
virtual memory) is 1.2GB
How can I increase the value of the total memory cygwin can allocate by new[]?

Thanks a lot for your suggestions.

Best Regards

G.Spagnuolo
