+  When you run a large instrumented program stand-alone or via afl-showmap
+  you might see a warning like the following:
+
+  ```
+  Warning: AFL++ tools might need to set AFL_MAP_SIZE to 223723 to be able to run this instrumented program if this crashes!
+  ```
+
+  Depending how the target works it might also crash afterwards.
+
+  Solution: just do an `export AFL_MAP_SIZE=(the value in the warning)`.
