Need more memory for your After Effects heavy lifting? By default, Windows XP limits the amount of RAM to 2GB per process. But with the helpful instructions of Jonas Hummelstrand, you can bump that up to 3GB per instance of AE. Not too shabby.

The tip is effortless to execute, it basically requires adding the “/3GB” switch to your boot.ini file default OS call, and rebooting. There is even a flash video tutorial that details the steps (creative commons licensed, no less!)

Nice work, Jonas.
