How to get the real maximum size of the string stream without writing anything into it?

I am dealing with large libpacp files with the program below.

I am confused about the real maximum memory size that stringstream can allocate from the OS.

The first part of the code is a program for processing libpacp files.

The second part is a testing program.

Environment: Windows 10, VS, runs in 32-bit mode with Win32.

First part:

#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
#include <string>
#include <ctime>
#include <cstdio>

#define HeaderBytes 24
#define MaxPkgBytes 65544  //65536+8
#define KeepDays 7
#define KeepSeconds (KeepDays*86400)
#define StartTimeOffset (-1*86400)  // -1 day

using namespace std;

typedef struct{
    int size;
    char data[MaxPkgBytes];
}pkg;

int catoi(const char* ca){
    char tmp[4];
    int* iptr;
    for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++){
        tmp[i] = ca[3 - i];
    }
    iptr = reinterpret_cast<int*>(tmp);
    return *iptr;
}

#ifdef _MSC_VER
#include <windows.h>
#include <iomanip>
wstring str2wstr(const std::string& s)
{
    int len;
    int slength = (int)s.length() + 1;
    len = MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP, 0, s.c_str(), slength, 0, 0);
    wchar_t* buf = new wchar_t[len];
    MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP, 0, s.c_str(), slength, buf, len);
    wstring wstr(buf);
    return wstr;
}

Pseudocode of the first part:

using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char** argv){
    //leave over the varibles
    string inFileName, outFileName;
    fstream fs_out;
    char buf_char;
    int buf_int, headercount = 0, curPkgIdx= 0, lastPkgIdx = 1, tmp;
    bool isBroken = false, isValid;
    clock_t mytime;
    unsigned int StartTime = 0, PkgTime;
    pkg buf_pkg[2];
    int invalidPConuter = 0;
    long long outBufMaxPos = 0;

    //the varibles will be mentioned
    fstream fs_in;
    stringstream outBuf;

    fs_in.read(Header);
    outBuf.write(Header);

    if (fs_in){
        StartTime = first_packet_time + StartTimeOffset;
    }

    while (!fs_in.eof()){
        if (a header read from fs_in){ 
            skip the block of header
        }
        else{
            fs_in.read(packet header);

            if (time of packet isValid){
                check size of packet
            }
            if (size and time isValid)
            {
                fs_in.read(packet data);  
                outBuf.write(packet data);

                if(outBuf out of range)
                {
                    print(max stringstream size)
                    system("pause");
                }               

                if (outBuf size >= 1GB)
                {
                    write outBuf into output file
                }
            }
            if (size or time isNotValid)
            {
                find next valid packet byte by byte
            }
        }
    }
    fs_in.close();

    system("pause"); 
    return 0;
}

The second part of:

#include <iostream>
#include <typeinfo>
#include <sstream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;


#define testsize (80*1024*1024)
int main()
{
    stringstream ss;
    char* buf = new char[testsize];
    int i = 0;
    memset(buf, 'a', testsize);
    while (i < 30)
    {
        ss.write(buf, testsize);
        cout << ss.tellp()/1024/1024 << endl;
        ++i;
    }
    system("pause");
}

In the first part, the maximum stringstream size is limited to approximately 674 MB.

But in the second part, the maximum stringstream size is limited to about 2 GB.

Why are they different?

And how can I get the real maximum stringstream size without writing anything into it?

I was looking for a related issue, but the answers didn't help me.
