I don't think you mean to change the size of the cygheap to 1792 Megs, do you? This sounds impossible to me. Keep in mind that you only have 2 Gigs total memory available per application. The cygheap size is usually 1 MByte, + the number of pages to align the end of the cygheap section to the next 64K boundary. In a case like this you can increase the cygheap to, say, 2 Megs + alignment, but that should be enough for all cases which fit into memory at all. Otherwise, ld should use temporary files to store intermediate data.
