Windows virtual bytes

On Windows, every process has a default limit of 2G virtual bytes. The default limit may not be sufficient in some conditions, such as high-load scenarios with many instances of PowerBuilder components. The EAServer process may reach on out-of-memory condition when the virtual byte limit is reached.

Some Windows server editions, such as the Advanced edition, allow you to configure a higher limit such as 3GB.

To determine if the EAServer process is reaching the virtual bytes limit, see “Evaluating Windows memory”.

To increase the virtual bytes limit for the EAServer process, use the Windows imagecfg.exe utility. For more information about the utility, see the Microsoft Knowledge Base article 171793 Information on Application Use of 4GT RAM Tuning.
