Ouch...of course I meant "-Xmx1024M". Sigh...

Yes, that's true. Unfortunately, in order to compile my largest document,
even 512 was not enough. Because I actually render fairly infrequently
(several times a week at most), the performance degradation doesn't affect
me all that much. I should have observed to Susan that my situation might
be different from hers and that she should try 256 or 512.

Thanks for letting me clarify!
