Greetings, Will some kind soul please inform me as to how to increase the size allotted for my system heap. It currently occupies 1799k of Ram, and the gauge (in "about the finder" is a fraction away from being totally full. Every once in a while my applications will "unexpectably quit" when I try to launch them, I must restart in order for things to work properly. So, any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!

It works very well, even keeps track of just where your heap is, too, so you can set the size to maximum of your needs without worrying whether or not the value is correct with regards to stack/heap collision. --Gregory
