Take a look at the gnuchess Makefile :
there are lots of options available. You can disable somes or change values :
examples :

# Table limits from gnuchess.h. These are given default values if not
# set here. The default values are given below, but you may want to
# check gnuchess.h to make sure.
# -Dttblsz=150001 Transposition table size. Small address space computers
#                 might try 8001. Setting ttblsz to 0 removes the transposition
#                 table
# -DBOOKSIZE=250000 Number of unique position/move combinations allowed.
#                   For MSDOS 10000 is used.
