And thank you Rik, Hoard is a fantastic library, I'm now able to get up to 3GB of memory !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) ++++++++++++ Unfortunately my program which is doing "alot" of calculations still needs more space, Is there some way to enable 64 bit support (or something) and get the swap space active, and give it another GB or so ? ++++++++++++ I know it sounds a bit crazy the amount of memory required, you see I'm a PhD student, and I've been working on a model of a network for the past 2 years. What I'm doing is formally verifying it and the calculations involved are enormous !!! To finish my work I need to run this computation to completion and get the results. If there are suggestions ideas they are very much appreciated.
