[comp.text.tex] TeX Capacity: How to extend it?

chiraprakash@MV3600.BMEN.TULANE.EDU (Chiraprakash Nayak) (08/21/90)

Helo there;


While TeXing a 500+page document file (in VM/CMS), TeX aborted after about
314 pages of output giving an error message as to "TeX capacity exceeded, pool
size so-and-so". Even when storage is defined to be 8MB, the problem remains.
Other than splitting the file to two smaller ones and changing page numbering
and merging the table of contents and subject-index and .... is there a better
way to simply extend the "capacity" of TeX? How is the capacity bound to the 
VM/CMS  site limits?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
