Is it possible to change any parameter and rebuild the Dynix 2.1.1 kernel so that the 16MB user memory limit can be set to 256MB? We're having some trouble with gcc getting a "virtual memory exhausted" error when doing an optimized compile on some of it's large sources... The machine is a Balance 8000, with 12 cpu:s and 10MB of memory.
