The system ran entirely in RAM, meaning that both the source code and resulting machine code had to be able to fit in memory at the same time. This could be a significant limitation in many situations. Additionally, it did not include the ability to link multiple files together into a single larger program, which put further limits on the sort of programs that could be developed with it. [Eastern Front 1941] required six modules, which had to be linked together by hand using DOS. Significant effort was needed to ensure that the memory locations in the six files were correct.

[Eastern Front 1941], which was about 12 to 16k of machine code, required the source to be broken into six modules and then linked together by hand using DOS.
