Hi,

As far as I can tell, you should set the limit in MBytes.

So, for 2G, you should have:
AddressSpaceLimit=2048

I am using 1GB for some Moose analyses. I benchmarked and got no sign of slowdown.

Cheers,
Doru

Thanks a lot, I added

AddressSpaceLimit = 2147483648

To the .ini file and all is working smoothly.

FYI, I don�t have speed problems with such memory. Of course, If I�ll process some big data, I�ll wait a while to get the answer, but the same happens in any other lang/platt. Certainty, I can do fast experiments in C, but I don�t get all Pharo benefits, like pausing my analysis and resuming it later, such thing in C (or may be any other language) would require to store the intermediate data into files or a database. With Pharo, I don�t care about that.

Cheers.

I can only guess by the comment in the commit:

Can you check that?

Thanks, but what would be the parameter?

This is the default .ini

[Global]

DeferUpdate=1

ShowConsole=0

DynamicConsole=1

ReduceCPUUsage=1

ReduceCPUInBackground=0

3ButtonMouse=0

1ButtonMouse=0

UseDirectSound=1

PriorityBoost=1

B3DXUsesOpenGL=0

CaseSensitiveFileMode=0

So there is no mention the paratemer to change or add.

Cheers.

I think latest Pharo VM supports to change the memory limit by only changing an ini file. Igor did that not long ago.

Hi Guys,

� �I read in this thread

�that 512 mb limit can be avoided in windows, but a re-compilation is needed. I was wondering if the situation changed, and now we can pass a parameter. Otherwise, I would be interested if any of you has a pre-compiled vm with more mem.

I need to run some experiments and I need 2GB (or 1.5 GB at least ) on a cog VM for Windows. �

Thanks in advance.

Oscar
