Public bug reported:

background:

the default for the -m option is 1024Mb. This means that you'll need
about 1Gb of swap if your machines has less than 1G of RAM. Fine. When
you have 1G of RAM, you'll be fine. You'll waste some RAM if you have
2G, but if you have 4, 8 or 16Gb, enblend will run in a tiny part of RAM
and leave the rest unused.

Wishlist:
Enblend should, when RAM >> 1G, auto-adjust the -m parameter to say 0.75 * RAMSIZE. (limited to 2048 if sizeof (long) == 4)

** Affects: enblend
     Importance: Wishlist
         Status: New
