Yes it does. You have to increase the memory partion for the
Clean IDE. For the 68k version you can just use "Get Info" in
the Finder and increase the "Preferred size".

Unfortunately it's not so easy for the PPC version. The linker
is part of the IDE and written in Clean. The Clean run-time
system uses a special 'STHP' resource to determine the memory
requirements (stack size, heap size, etc).

I've developed an application to change the heap size, stack
size and other options for a Clean application (most of the
options you find in the Option->Application... dialogue box)
This application will be available next Wednesday (14/1).
