[IDV #FWP-228593]: Nightly build and Mac OSX

Hi again Kevin,

We made some changes to never exceed ~1.5GBs on any 32 bit OS (not just MS 
Windows).

Tomorrow (after the nightly build) could you give it another try, and let us 
know how it goes.

Thanks for reporting this problem. It allows us to build a better mouse trap :-)

-Julien
