              stack.  (The 8MB figure comes from the -stack
              command-line argument we pass to the linker when building
              Emacs, but that's because we need a large stack for
-             Emacs's main thread.)  Since we request 2GB of reserved
-             memory at startup (see w32heap.c), which is close to the
-             maximum memory available for a 32-bit process on Windows,
-             the 8MB reservation for each thread causes failures in
-             starting subprocesses, because we create a thread running
+             Emacs's main thread.)  The 8MB reservation for each thread
+             might causes failures in starting subprocesses, especially
+             in 32-bit builds, because we create a thread running
              reader_thread for each subprocess.  As 8MB of stack is
              way too much for reader_thread, forcing Windows to
              reserve less wins the day.  */
