Hi Mark,

Can you please provide:

1.  A copy of your virtuoso.ini and virtuoso.log files
2.  A directory listing from your database directory
3.  Details of the operating system being used (uname -a) and any other 
commands detailing machine resources ie number of cores, memory size, disk 
space etc

Do you know what is the file size of the operating system being used which 
would be the limiting factor as to the size of a single database file. In 
theory Virtuoso can support database sizes up to 32TB on a 64bit operating 
system, but typically would requiring striping/segmenting of the database 
across multiple file to get around OS limits and also performance improvement 
as detailed in the following documents on striping:

        http://docs.openlinksw.com/virtuoso/databaseadmsrv.html#ini_Striping
        http://docs.openlinksw.com/virtuoso/databaseadmsrv.html#IOQS

14 billion triples hosted in a single virtuoso instance and way past the  
1billion triple recommended for a single server instance beyond which a 
clustered server, available in the commercial Virtuoso product is recommended:

        http://docs.openlinksw.com/virtuoso/virtuosofaq.html#virtuosofaq11

Having said that we do have users running successfully with 5 billion plus 
triples in a single open source instance, but 14 billion is really pushing the 
barrier I would say ...

Hugh Williams
