Apparently you are right! But my desktop has 4GB RAM, and to be honest, when I load normal trajectories (I know they are smaller in size) but I have not seen such issue in almost 60% increase in RAM occupation by VMD. Normally I load 1000 frames, and now I want 3000 frames. Why should it run to such a strange problem?
