Extending Max memory

2015-08-13 Thread Gustavo Seabra
Hi all, I´m running a program in Cygwin, which is segfaulting possibly for reaching a memory limit. The program requires 3018.0532 MB memory to perform an analysis. The computer has 8GB of memory installed, but right after estimating the maximum memory the program segfaults. Is there an easy

Hi, I have read [1] and set heap_chunk_in_mb to 2048, but max_memory.exe gives me only 1920 MB. I need (almost) 2048 MB to be able to manipulate BIG (map) images, how can get 2048 megabytes available for my program? Where has the 128 MB (2048 - 1920) gone? I also tried increasing

helpfully, please attempt to read the email before polluting the thread with a dismissive reply. regtool has a different syntax from what is shown on the max memory page. regtool -i set Key\Value not regtool -i set Key Value. Doing the latter seems to have removed the cygwin registry values. I asked

then you should be prepared to be challenged on that fact. I did cut and paste the examples from the documentation and they work just fine. regtool has a different syntax from what is shown on the max memory page. regtool -i set Key\Value not regtool -i set Key Value. The documentation that you
