I'm actually working on a mac, so that shouldn't be the problem.
So your proposition to use -mmap would be unix specific? Is the option available on mac?

I think you can also modify the file Info.plist. Take the squeak app, right click, show package contents. There go to "Contents" and there you will find such file. There, you can change the property SqueakMaxHeapSize. Put 2 gb or whatever you want.
