Hi Gerry
No, I doubt it is the machine, we also run big data sets on similar spec.
machines (upto 1GB RAM) and find that image can be slow but gets there
eventually. The important thing is to may sure there is enough memory space
(virtual if not physical) assigned, so that the module can realloc
successfully. Use the "-memory " switch to specify 2GB (assuming your NT
swap file is bigger than that) and then sit back and wait.....
If you are using glyphs, make sure you use the "speedy" optio. This really
cuts down on the processing time. If we need fancy symbols for publication
plots etc, we use "normal" or "spiffy" when you need to make the plots, but
for "work" we use the simple stuff.

Hi,
I am trying to display about 1.7 million data points in DX. My PC is
WinNT and has 640 MB RAM, 32MB video card, and has Exceed installed. The
program hangs-up when it gets to the image module. Is there a memory
problem with my PC, Exceed, video card?
Thanks.
