   Not necessarily true.  The system heap is separate from an application's
heap, but virtually every application program calls upon the system for
services.  If the system runs out of memory in its own heap, every
application is likely to suffer.
   I don't know whether increasing the size of the system heap will help
solve Anthony's problem, but it's a reasonable thing to try.
