ok!

If I decrease main_memory from 1500000 to 1000000
then pdfetex needs only 56000008 Bytes (60000008 bevor)
this is a factor 8!

Why 8? If main_memory is given in words (longwords)  I would expect a
factor 2 (4), but not 8!
ok, let it be quadwords!

Then I decreased further mem_bot from 4000000 to 3000000
pdfetex now needs 48000008 Bytes
this is a factor 8 too!

The remaining 48000008 Bytes divided by 8 means 6000000 words? I have to
set everything to zero then!?

It looks as if there is no memory at all!

In what units are all the memory entrys given?

???
