gcl has compile-time parameter --enable-maxpages,
sbcl and cmucl has run-time parameter -dynamic-space-size
but cmucl doesn't available on 64-bit.
I'm not sure that 8Gb is sbcl limit on 64-bit.
I just heard that it works fine with 8Gb.
I'm almost sure that you get more than 8Gb on
64-bit either with sbcl or with gcl compiled
with large enough --enable-maxpage.
Probably it is good idea to ask about details
on sbcl and gcl lists.
