5.2.3 Headers and memory usage
------------------------------

Dvips tries to avoid overflowing the printer's memory by splitting the
output files into "sections" (see the `-i' option in Note: Option
details).  Therefore, for all header files, Dvips debits the printer
VM budget by some value.  If the header file has, in its leading
commentary a line of the form

     %%VMusage: MIN MAX

then MAX is used.  If there is no `%%VMusage' line, then the size (in
bytes) of the header file is used as an approximation.

  Illustrations (figure files) are also checked for `%%VMusage' line.
