That's a bad reason, if you can not know how much resources that will be needed in theory (as in it's impossible), you should at least limit any hoarding of resources to sensical limits. If not, your little app could swap out the entire system. Still lazy, you should rather let it be configurable by the user. Then if doing that then it makes sense to allocate it all on the heap directly and make sure it's locked in physical memory, to guarantee that the resources a user has configured your program to handle, actually has been acquired and can be used.
