That's not your flash space it's your system ram (memory), You would be wise to setup a swapfile either on CF or USB, then if the system should need more memory it will use the swapfile

You can setup a swapfile from settings on your BH image, I setup a 64mb swap on my CF.

yes you can!!

blue button x 2, choose 'swap file settings' and 'create'. it will then ask you to select the size of the file you wish to create. activate and you're done mate

Use barryallen, also put your multiBoot image and your swap file on it as well
