In addition to what others have posted, I have some patches that improve
the situation a little.

Patch 1: If you add a "-memory flag" and then save the image, you can
execute the image directly and get back the same -memory flag again. 
This works for all command-line VM arguments.  It uses the Unix #! hack
to work.

Patch 2: Heck, allocate more memory if it runs low.  Unfortunately, this
is a lot trickier than it sounds, due to ObjectMemory's requirements,
and I'm not 100% sure it is reliable.  But, I use it daily, and I don't
get a crash more than once every week or two, even though I leave Squeak
running 24/7.  This is probably a bad choice for a server, but it's
probably fine for personal hacking around, considering the alternatives.
