    that is possible, you can look in the K article for a start with the three levels. after that you can play with a bigdb variable, but that is not advised.

    also looking at your other question, what are you trying to do that requires so much memory? is it required to run that on the big-ip?

Are you planning to run some scripting or scheduled tasks that require that big mem for linux usage. Can you please elaborate your actual requirement. Modifying these are not advisable.
