This amusing behaviour is from R2.6.1 on WinXP Pro SP2 running with boot.in=
i /3GB flag, exploring memory limits.

When actual (object, not total) memory usage hits 2048 MB, memory.size star=
ts counting down again, but reports a negative amount, e.g. -2046.333. Is t=
his an intended (or unavoidable) feature?)
