I don't know about Borland C; however, djgpp can use an extremely
large amount of memory (maximum 512 Mb I think), split between
physical memory and virtual memory on your hard drive.  The exact
limit depends upon what DPMI server you use; the figure above is for
the CWSDPMI server, which can only run in plain DOS.  Under Windows
the limits are smaller.

If you go to http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/ you can find out more
information about djgpp, and the Zip Picker which is linked from that
page will tell you what to download.
