Re: [ferret_users] Regarding memory limits



Hi Saurabh,

The command 'SET MEM /SIZE=xxx' is correct and works.  

In versions 7.2 and later, this command only sets a maximum on the amount of memory (in units of 8*MB; in other words, units of a million double-precision floating point values) that Ferret/PyFerret can use; no memory is actually allocated at that time (as was the case in previous versions of Ferret/PyFerret).  We are working on allowing users to specify the units for the number in this command so it is clearer how much memory one is allowing.
