I managed to track down one critical array specification which I sat
smaller before compiling. The 64-bit version use the same initialisation
file as the 32-bit, so an array size of 22E+06 elements instead of 6E+06
was used. The SizeOfUninitializedData is now 5eeba800 (1.6 GB) and
everything works beautiful :)

I would never had thought of this without your help! Thank you very
much!

Cheers,
