Hi Rich,

Please try GRASS_VECTOR_LOWMEM environment variable:

GRASS_VECTOR_LOWMEM
[vectorlib]
If the environment variable GRASS_VECTOR_LOWMEM exists, memory consumption will 
be reduced when building vector topology support structures. Recommended for 
creating large vectors.

See: https://grass.osgeo.org/grass72/manuals/variables.html

Cheers
Stefan

Subject: [GRASS-user] Large import runs out of memory

   While trying to import (v.in.ogr) a large landuse .shp file grass gave up 
because it could not find 11+M (or G, I don't recall which) of memory. This 
desktop has 4G RAM installed and a 15G swap file. My builds are configured with 
largefile enabled. Are there other options that would allow grass to see and 
use the available swap space on the disk?

Rich
