[Scilab-users] Maximum allocation with Scilab 6.0 beta

[antoine.monmayrant at laas.fr]

Hi all,

For testing purposes, I am trying to allocate big chunks of memory with 
scilab 6.0beta.
I have ~256GB of free ram on my machine, however, Scilab fails creating 
variables that are way smaller than that:

--> a=rand(100000,100000);

Can not allocate 80000.00 MB memory.


Any idea what is going on?
What is the actual ram limitation with the new "stackless" scilab?

Cheers,

Antoine
