		// When running a 32-bit xz on a system with a lot of RAM and
		// using a percentage-based memory limit, the result can be
		// bigger than the 32-bit address space. Limiting the limit
		// below SIZE_MAX for compression (not decompression) makes
		// xz lower the compression settings (or number of threads)
		// to a level that *might* work. In practice it has worked
		// when using a 64-bit kernel that gives full 4 GiB address
		// space to 32-bit programs. In other situations this might
		// still be too high, like 32-bit kernels that may give much
		// less than 4 GiB to a single application.
		//
		// So this is an ugly hack but I will keep it here while
		// it does more good than bad.
		//
		// Use a value less than SIZE_MAX so that there's some room
		// for the xz program and so on. Don't use 4000 MiB because
