Enabling LargeAddressAware option for Agile Business Suite in Windows

32-bit processes under Windows are limited to address 2 GB memory. However, you can use the 4-gigabyte tuning (4GT) feature on Windows to increase the memory up to 3 GB. You can then use the /LARGEADDRESSAWARE switch to enable AB Suite to use the large address space.

To use the 4GT feature and the /LARGEADDRESSAWARE switch for increasing the memory, perform the following:

  1. Enable 4GT using the BCDEdit /set increaseuserva command.

    You can set the increaseuserva option to a value between 2048 (2 GB) and 3072 (3 GB).

  2. Open command line.

  3. Browse to the folder where devenv.exe is installed.

    For example, if you have installed Visual Studio 2017 on C drive, you can locate the devenv.exe in the following location:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Professional\Common7\IDE

  4. Type the command editbin /LARGEADDRESSAWARE devenv.exe to enable AB Suite to use the large address space.
