Insufficient virtual memory

wenxuzhao
wenxuzhao over 13 years ago

 When I tried to plot large data files, I got the following error:

(\"Insufficient virtual memory\" 0 t nil (\"*Error* Insufficient virtual memory: Malloc failed\" nil))

I am using IC6.1.5.500

Is there any chance that I can go throught this? Or any way that I can increase virtual memory?

 

Appreciate your help!

    Please also provide the full sub-version:
