--- Comment #12 from Manoa <jhopper at safe-mail.net> ---
In conclusion, this is probably not a wine bug. And when I followed the
discussions about this, the devs pointed out that there's not much that can be
done about it with wine being a low-level API layer between Windows and Linux.
Windows puts some constraints on how address space layout has to be which is
mostly incompatible with how Linux handles layout. So memory allocations on
both sides work against each other, resulting in non-optimal address space
usage.

so what are we supposed to do about it ? nothing ? if your problem is address
space layout then make a kernel patch that fixes the linux address space layout
no ?
