Hi, I ran the same command again, running top, and got the result
Mem: 6220940k total, 5879056k used, 341884k free, 143992k buffers Swap: 1951888k total, 2584k used, 1949304k free, 2363516k cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 19117 berend 25 0 3037m 2.5g 3508 R 100 41.4 0:44.96 MultiFlow just before it crashed. I have a 2 processor machine with total 6 GB of memory (2 times 3 gb?), so I don't think it should be out of memory. How can I verify this for sure? Thanks, Berend.
