Hello folks,

"Many 32-bit applications crash when they exhaust their VM addressing space" is
an outrageous claim for the "many" part.

I've analysed thousands of 32-bit applications/games for many years with the
Wine project and encountered only a handful with the issue of running out of
memory. From these almost all of them were stupid application or graphics
driver bugs (example: nvidia drivers leaking gl memory).

Lowering importance to "normal" and refining summary.

Also you didn't even specify your exact host environment and Wine version.

Regards
