How much can RAM can I dedicate to a specific program? A recommended amount?

Hello!

So recently I've noticed certain programs I have been using that dedicate a specific amount of RAM, no more no less.

The performance in these programs have pushed me to increase the amount of RAM I can dedicate.

I have 24 gigs of RAM 2x4, 1x16

How much RAM could I use at most towards one program safely?

Programs use the exact amount of memory that they request. If they request more than the OS is able to allocate to them, they must either make do with what they can get or terminate.
