The Pharo.app has an info.plist file where you can change the value of 
SqueakMaxHeapSize.
The default value is 516MB.
I don't know what the maximum allowed number is. As the Pharo VM is 32 
Bit I expect that you
cannot increase it beyond ~3GB.
In order to break this memory barrier you will have to wait for a 64 Bit 
VM (look for Spur development)
later this year.
