memory size calculation



Why does the following happen?

set memory/size=50
 Cached data cleared from memory
 
save /clobber /file=wdtdz.nc wprimedtdz,wdtdzprime,wprimedtdzprime
 **ERROR: insufficient memory: 10931760 words were requested.

As far as I can tell, I've just requested ferret to allocate 50
megawords of memory, and yet it complains that it needs 11 megawords
and doesn't have enough. Hmmz? When I increase memory to 100, it
works.
