subject: 230meg Limit under OS/2?

All the documentation says that this should work:

 rc = DosAllocMem(&mem1,300000000,PAG_WRITE);

 but it always returns 8, NOT_ENOUGHT_RAM.

 I can't allocate anything more than 230meg, however
the documentation says I should be able to get around 448meg per process.

(The 230meg is a combined number of shared/private ask for more of one, it
reduces the amount of the other available.)

  Any ideas?
