If your not running out of memory, then you don't need to increase it.
If you have a huge module, there is no reason why you cannot increase the Heap
Size larger than your physical RAM.. You can only look at a small part of a map
anyway so the rest of the map will be loaded into physical memory and then
immediately paged out into virtual memory.
Cheers,
Brent.

Ah, ok. So if I have 1024 physical, would it benefit me to change it from the
512 mb that I have at now to 640, 768 or 1024 even? Currently I don't recall
ever getting an out of memory error so probably no need to change that unless
you think it would have a nice performance boost.
