.SETSEGMENTSIZE num command. Sets the number of nodes that Logo allocates from the operating system at once to num, which mush be a positive integer. The name is dotted because bad things will happen if you use a number that's too small or too large for your computer. The initial value is 16,000 for most systems, but is smaller for 68000-based Macs. Making it larger will speed up computations (by reducing the number of garbage collections) at the cost of allocating more memory than necessary.
