16Tb is the limit for the 47-bit address space in x86_64 -- asan requires that much AS for the shadow.
It also requires 4Tb for the allocator, so on x86_64 the current requirement is 20Tb.
With another address space the limits will be different.

No need to try a large app.
Write a test that allocates (and does not deallocate) 32-byte chunks in an infinite loop and see how much RAM it can allocate.
