If you are using 1.x, 2.0 .net 32bits your maximum
allocatable memory
is around 1.2 GB. This is due to the fact that Windows O.S.
32 bit
reserves 2 GB per application. In a dotnet app, the CLR is
allocating
some memory too, leaving less than 2 GB for the actual
implementation
of the application.
This "limitation" is doesnt exist under Windows
O.S. 64 bit. I do not
know the actual numbers but under 64 bit you will have
*plenty* memory
available for your app.
Perhaps in the decades to come, we will still see apps
running out of
memory under 64 bit LOL.
