How can I get bigger processes on 4.1BSD ?

The users on my system would like to have 12 MB processes for some
large simulation programs. (I have a VAX 11/780 with 4MB of memory.)
I followed the "Operating/Installing
4.1BSD" instructions, which say to increase MAXTSIZ, MAXDSIZ, and
MAXSSIZ in sys/h/vmparam.h. Whenever a process gets bigger than
about 8 Meg, the system crashes. I'm using interleaved swap to get
2 hp?b sections of swap space, and I don't get an out of swap space
message.
Has anybody successfully done this? What should I check? Any help
will be much appreciated.
