I've got 2G of memory on my physical machine. The core dump is just
under 200M (from a ~40M image). Will I need to start Squeak with
extra memory? How do I determine the correct start/end address? And
it looks like the bits of the original process is split into a whole
bunch of chunks in the core dump. Will the interpreter simulator be
able to handle that?
Thanks,
David
