From the ML Note:
The size of this window is defined by a registry setting in the HOME key for
Oracle (HKLM\Software\Oracle\Homex) called AWE_WINDOW_MEMORY. By default,
this value is 1GB, so if this value is not set in the registry,
AWE_WINDOW_MEMORY will be 1GB.
This is set on a per instance basis.
