POV-Ray can only use as much memory as the operating system and hardware
limitations allow. Hardware limits 32-bit versions of POV-Ray to 4 GB of
memory, and operating system limits POV-Ray to 2 to 3 GB depending on the
operating system configuration. There is nothing POV-Ray can do about either
of those limits.
