OutOfMemory exceptions are often caused by address space fragmentation in Visual Studio process. For users experiencing excessive OutOfMemory exceptions we provide a tool which overrides Visual Studio's memory allocation policy to ensure more continuous address space for Common Language Runtime.
To use the tool download wrappers.zip file, unpack it and run devenv2005_wrap and devenv2008_wrap instead of devenv.exe for Visual Studio 2005 and 2008 correspondingly.
Sometimes Visual Studio fails to start under wrappers. Check AppInit_DLLs. Rogue DLLs activated from there can interfere with wrappers. Example: wxvault.dll preinstalled with Dell laptops.
