Default Is Cider Large Address Aware?
I'm dealing with the evil Error 12 and buffer overrun crashes on my Mac game, and I'm learning to read crash logs.

Using mono, I ran my logs through the Crash Log Analyzer, which told me to make the game Large Address Aware. That should have been done via patch a long time ago. I assumed that was true for Macs as well.

However, the relevant part of the crash log (below), seems to indicate that the game isn't using more than 2G. I have 4G total, and I'm happy to upgrade my memory if it will do any good, but if Cider isn't going to be able to use the memory, I don't want to waste the money.

Thanks!

I suspect it is not a 64bit application. Based on

Also, came across this when searching web with "is cider 64 bit". It is the first result returned.
