Hi all,
For testing purposes, I am trying to allocate big chunks of memory
with scilab 6.0beta.
I have ~256GB of free ram on my machine, however, Scilab fails
creating variables that are way smaller than that:
--> a=rand(10,10);
.
With Scilab <6, the maximal number of components in a matrix is
2^31-1, since their linearized index is encoded with 4-byte-signed
integers.
Now, 1e10 is bigger than that.
It seems that you are right.
But things can get a bit funny:
--> a=[1:2^31-2];
//no problemo
--> a=[1:2^31-1];
//no problemo
--> a=[1:2^31];
// no error, just never ending
Antoine
I do not think that this limit is removed in Scilab 6, but a
confirmation from the dev team would be useful.
So here, the misleading message could come from this "index limit",
without respect to the available or allocatable memory.
HTH
