Is there a way to increase Stockfish's memory limit past 32 mb on Firefox?

Hey, so I noticed that on Chromium-based browsers you can allocate a whole gigabyte of memory, compared to Firefox's 32 megabytes, which is a sad number compared to what you get on Chromium-based browsers, and I have reasons to use Firefox and I'd like to make use of more memory than just 32 megabytes, Is this possible?

I've looked on about:config, tried messing about with the cache sizes, I've even looked at lichess' source code to figure out where it gets the memory limit of 32 megabytes from, and where I can change that limit, but I couldn't figure It out myself, even after a whole hour of looking at it, since I'm not experienced in web development or WASM.

If anyone knows how, please do tell.

Thank you :)

Use NNUE Stockfish 13+ https://lichess.org/blog/YDOKRxQAACgAREB3/stockfish-13-nnue-on-lichess

Firefox
Firefox users will need more patience. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can enable javascript.options.wasm_simd in about:config. We have tested this with Firefox 85, but note that Firefox does not guarantee stability or security when tinkering with these flags.

depends on what you use

NNUE (has computer analysis so yes there is more memory)

HCE

WASM

ASMJS

update lichess or if you have NNUE you have the latest along with firefox @Tecci also if you use fishnet look at the bottem part also if you have stock 13 and still have less on fishnet or fire fox update it and see what you get if your a fishnet user you should most likely to be able to update it if not blogs here forever and this IS the new prototype :)

Yeah, I enabled SIMD when I was messing about in about:config, and NNUE just appeared out of thin air, It's sad that we don't get to increase the memory capacity ourselves, but I'll be patient for the time being. :)

okay i recently found something about updating it to memory by a amazing amount (500 Gigabyte) i dont know where i found it i just explored @Tecci

I am 15 :) And If you can find it, could you provide me with it? Thanks :)
