I'm actually working on a mac, so that shouldn't be the problem. So your proposition to use -mmap would be unix specific? Is the option available on mac? Thanks, Max On 09.10.2010, at 21:34, Levente Uzonyi wrote:

The unix VM and apparently also the Mac VM has an option -memory that allows you to set a heap size:
[adrian:/Applications/Squeak 4.2.3beta1U.app/Contents/MacOS] ./Squeak\ VM\ Opt -help Usage: ./Squeak VM Opt [<option>...] [<imageName> [<argument>...]] ./Squeak VM Opt [<option>...] -- [<argument>...]
Common <option>s: -help print this help message, then exit -memory <size>[mk] use fixed heap size (added to image size) -pathenc <enc> set encoding for pathnames (default: macintosh) -headless run in headless (no window) mode (default: false)
Notes: <imageName> defaults to `Squeak.image'. If `-memory' is not specified then the heap will grow dynamically. <argument>s are ignored, but are processed by the Squeak image. The first <argument> normally names a Squeak `script' to execute. Precede <arguments> by `--' to use default image.
This is ok for Mac, but the unix VM takes different arguments.

Hi
I'm having trouble with low space warnings in Pharo. Is there a source on how much memory the image can get from the OS? Is there maybe a way to up that limit? I am loading a lot of data into the image and the limit at the moment seems to be around 500 MB.
Thanks for any ideas.
