+The maximum amount of memory that PSPP will use to store data being processed.
+If memory in excess of the workspace size is required, then PSPP will start
+to use temporary files to store the data.
+Setting a higher value will, in general, mean procedures will run faster, 
+but may cause other applications to run slower.
+On platforms without virtual memory management, setting a very large workspace
