[Scilab-users] Scilab problem?

[SCHULZ Wolfgang]

Hello,
I used [free, total]=getmemory() before and after each plot and there is still some memory left after the last plot.

I'm not sure this is related because I learned some years ago that for plotting with a lot of data it is important to increase the Java Heap Memory. If I understand correctly the memory I display with the command above is the internal SCILAB memory. Not related to the plotting issue.

It seems I'm somehow locked because I cannot increase the Java Heap Memory because of the problem you mentioned!

Will this issue be solved in the 5.5 version?

Wolfgang
