Hi Armin,

But all your system memory ie 32GB will not be available as the system itself and any other processes running on the machine will also require memory to function. In the Virtuoso performance docs it is recommended NumberOffBuffers be set 2/3 to 3/5 of system RAM:


        http://docs.openlinksw.com/virtuoso/rdfperformancetuning.html

So you need to reduce the setting to at least something less than the currently available memory which the Linux "top" command would tell you ...

Best Regards

Hi folks,

are there any limitations in numbuffers in virtuoso?
I have a machine with 32gb RAM and 8 Cpu cores.
120GB SSD HDD and running 64Bit Suse Linux.
I installed Virtuoso OS 5.0.11.

My calculation for numbuffers is:
30(gb ram) *1024(in mbyte) *1024(in kbyte) = 31457280K / 8K = 3932160
numbuffers

When I try to start virtuoso I got following error:
OpenLink Virtuoso Universal Server
18:24:17 INFO: Version 05.11.3039-pthreads for Linux as of Sep 28 2009
18:24:17 INFO: uses parts of OpenSSL, PCRE, Html Tidy
18:24:18 ERROR: GPF: disk.c:1294 Cannot allocate memory for Database
buffers, try to decrease NumberOfBuffers INI setting

why does it not work?

I want to load whole ontology datasets(27gb) into memory for performant
queries.

Thanks for any hints.
