How to give your 32 bit process 4GB of memory - LAA (Large Address Awareness)
2A little while ago I was astonished when someone mentioned in passing that you can actually increase the memory available to 32 bit processes... which blew my mind... somehow I never heard about it before.
The process is rather simple: you have to toggle the LAA flag, which is part of the PE header (if it is not already set).
As a result those 32 bit binaries will be able to work with a 4GB address space, instead of just 2GB.
Because there was no open source solution available to do this conveniently (at least none with a release, so you do not have to compile), I decided to write one in Rust.
This is a win-win for everybody:
* I learn how this LAA witchery works
* I can improve my familiarity with Rust
* people can download a precompiled tool from a safe source
* people can learn about this nonsense too
* probably something else I can't think of right now
