[ncl-talk] wavelet function memory limit for data size 2^16?

My bad. There is a fixed size limit in the underlying f77 code.

----
C** initialize work arrays
      PARAMETER (nk=65535)
      DOUBLE PRECISION wsave(4*nk+15),kwave(nk)
      DOUBLE COMPLEX yfft(nk),daughter(nk)

------

The 'wsave' is a work array for the FFT (FFTPACK).
I have no idea why this would be limited to this size (65535).

FFTPACK has no limitations on size ... that I am aware of.
------

What size ar your time series?
