Jennifer-

Sorry for the long link, but here are instructions to increase virtual
memory size.

Really you want to increase your physical memory as much as possible,
because virtual memory is actually hard drive space so it is SLOW. As soon
as you max out your physical memory, every application could potentially use
virtual memory.

Good Luck!
