title: How can I Increase memory the memory limit for Strawberry perl on Windows?
body: <p>I've installed Strawberry perl x64 on Windows, but it seems to have a memory limit of 256 MB. My perl script reasonably uses about 500MB of memory (does some calculations over linguistics corpora), but after consuming 256MB, perl terminates with message:</p>
  
  <p><code>Out of memory during request for 4088 bytes, total sbrk() is 267954176 bytes!</code></p>
  
  <p>Can the limit be increased somewhere? my machine has 18GB RAM and it should not be a problem to use it on x64 platform, but I can't find where to configure it.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for help.</p>
