There is a slight misinformation in the original INSTALLATION files
supplied with TeX 3.141 - you are advised to increase the pool size in
order to build LaTeX (i.e. lplain.fmt), but you also need to increase
the setting for "maxstrings". The following two-liner will suffice as
a texmemory.config file for this purpose:
set poolsize 64000
set maxstrings 6000
These increased sizes are not needed for actual LaTeX runs, but you
may need to increase other `constants' in order to process large
files.
Note also that if you increase "memmax" in order to build some other TeX
variants, you must adjust "memtop" to match while running INITEX. In
actual runs (using VIRTEX) the value of "memtop" is ignored, but "memmax"
should be at least as big as the one used to dump the .fmt file in
INITEX.
