loader error

Managers,

being somewhat new to true64, I'm submitting the question below.

I'm running an application that reports memory errors when the program
is launched.

here's the error:

*************************
/sbin/loader: Fatal Error: Insufficient memory to execute program.
Total amount of memory limited for one program (128 MB) is lower than
the total minimal amount of memory and swap (1256 MB) required.
**************************

since I have 4g of physical RAM and 2g of swap on the system and there
are no other programs running; I'm thinking that there may be a variable
I can set in sysconfigtab.

if I check my limits with the 'limit' command; here's what I see:

>limit
cputime 0:0-1
filesize 0 kbytes
datasize 131072 kbytes
stacksize 8192 kbytes
coredumpsize 0 kbytes
memoryuse 2041032 kbytes
descriptors 4096

it looks the system default limits are inadequate for the program to
launch successfully.

does anyone knows what variables I can set in sysconfigtab to override
the above system defaults?

I will be grateful.

thank you.
Susan James
