Please try the following on your server and find out how far you can go before
malloc fails.
On my Unixware server with 8Gb RAM, I can only go as far as 24 to 30 MB before
the process fails with 'Available memory exceeded'. Running 'sar -r' at the
Unix prompt shows me over 3 Gig of RAM is still free. Are there any parameters
I can change to increase the limit?
On my XP latop with 512MB RAM, I can run the program upto 250MB then it begins
to really crawl, taking upto 15 seconds to go through the loop.
BLOCK = SPACE(1000000)
STR1 = ''
FOR I = 1 TO 1000000
STR1 := BLOCK
PRINT I:' STR1 SIZE = ':1000000*I
NEXT
RETURN
END
