64 Bit Wine and RAM Utilization
 
I'm having an issue with being able to access all of my RAM on my system through a program run in Wine. The issue might be larger than Wine, but I have to investigate that further at another time.

Here's the setup: 32GB ram with Kubuntu 64 installed.
I run wine64 <program>
Ram available within the program is 4GB max. In order to do what I need to do, I need to have access to about 16GB of my RAM.

Is there a way to allocate more ram to Wine and, thus, the programs run through it? Does anybody have some suggestions, ideas, workarounds?

If the executable itself is 32-bit, you may be running into trouble there with a 4 GB RAM limit

Very true.
However, in this instance, I have both 32 and 64-bit versions. In Windows, I could access all 32GB with the 64bit version.
So, I don't think that is the issue.
