I got the following error message when running TeX with two pictex
figures on one page:

TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [main memory size=62701}

or at least something like that.  I am running TeX version 2.1 for
Berkeley Unix on my Sun3.  The question is how does one increase 
TeX's capacity?  Just increase the size of mem_max?
