Error: The maximum number of sample blocks has been reached, so audio computation must be terminated.

After the Vocoder effect failed 2 times, I ran it in debug mode, and it said:

The maximum number of sample blocks has been
reached, so audio computation must be terminated.
Probably, your program should not be retaining
so many samples in memory. You can get and set
the maximum using SND-SET-MAX-AUDIO-MEM.
error: audio memory exhausted

I tried looking around on the internet for how to change your maximum memory size from the default 1GB, but sadly couldn’t find anything that actually worked.

How long is the selection that you are applying the effect to?
Which version of Audacity (Look in: “Help menu > About Audacity”)
