Subject: Memory Allocation in low RAM environments

Reading up on garbage collection and memory allocation in Ruby and I've
just learned of the fact that Ruby allocates a minimum heap of
8000kbytes.

Is there anything I need to be wary of if reducing this to something
much smaller, like say between 512-1024kbytes?

I think that minimum heap size is causing me problems in my Arm-WinCE
environment where we get approx 38000-40000kbytes to use from the
initial 64megabytes, once the OS and framebuffer has taken its share.
