No, you are right. It should be made dynamic to accommodate larger
memory. I just used that value as a placeholder, since my focus was to
demonstrate what algorithms and designs could be developed on top of
this infrastructure, to help shape memory allocations. But certainly
this needs to be modified to be flexible enough to work with any memory
size. Thank you for your review!
