I can't say for sure without knowing what the contents of that heap is, but I suspect that yes, it would work.
However, the reason the heaps are so small is that they're each a lightweight thread, and in Erlang, spinning up new threads is a way of life. It would be hard to overstate what a fundamentally different architecture this is.
