From Hans Boehm's java program --
"The results are only really meaningful together with a specification of how much memory was used. It is possible to trade memory for better time performance. This benchmark should be run in a 32 MB heap, though we don't currently know how to enforce that uniformly."
For some years, the benchmarks game did show an alternative task where memory was limited -- but only for half-a-dozen language implementations.
Figuring out an appropriate max heap size for each program was too hands-on trial and error.
