Is the max limitation for malloc (virtual heap I guess?) for a 32-bit app on a 64-bit system (Windows 2003 SP2 x64, to be specific) 2GB?
I’m basically trying to push a program beyond that with no luck. So I was wondering if that holds true for ALL 32-bit apps on Win x64 bit platforms.
Thank you!
You should link your application with /LARGEADDRESSAWARE to make more than 2GB available to the application. Then you can use up to 4GB on a 64-bit OS in a 32-bit application.
