I hacked wine to enable 3GB user address space just like the /3GB boot.ini option for windows. ( see patch ) This actually works like a charm playing everquest2 which crashes from time to time without this patch due to running out of memory.
To do it right, should this "3GB Option" be enabled by a wine start parameter or a registry key ? Is the registry already setup during the call of libs/wine/mmap.c ?
There is no need for hacks like that, 3 Gb address space limit is already implemented in Wine, but is being activated only for applications marked as IMAGE_FILE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE for obvious reasons.
