Don't know, if this would help. I had to set this limit 200MB.
But making a small program here shows me, that this limit has
nothing to do with real available memory.
It was able to allocate up to 2GB of memory in _one_ chunk.

I use it. It is very handy for a first visual improvement after optimizing, 
when there are no
vertical or horizontal control points.
