I am aware of that. However, the RAM limit which any program can use for itself is 2GB.

Oleg has stated on numerous occasions that he and his staff are deliberately working on medium to low end machines. This was a video they recorded elsewhere, so I presume that the rig in question had sufficient RAM, compared to the ones at Igomir 2010. The effects in that footage might not even be maxed out like in the rest of the YT videos shown around here.
