The current RAM limitations for TS3 are these.
Windows: 4 GB. (the original 2 GB limit was lifted with Patch 1.17 almost eleven years ago)
Mac original version: 2 GB
Mac 64-bit version: Effectively no limit, up to the amount of RAM physically available and not in use (this doesn't necessarily make the game more stable as there are other issues to cope with)
When content or mods misbehave, the game can just keep calling for more and more resources until it crashes. It doesn't matter where the RAM limit is, or if there even is one, when that happens.
