[ncl-talk] gsn_csm_contour_map in Panel plot runs out of memory

Hi,

I am trying to create panel plots, (2 contour and 4 xy plots) using
"gsn_csm_contour_map" and "gsn_csm_xy" from wrf outputs for different
times. However, the job runs out of memory for one of the contour plots,
only for certain times. (The resulting figure only lacks one of the contour
plots!)

I am running ncl scripts on NCAR's Casper, and am using a total of 1500 GB
of memory! I was wondering if there's a problem with gsn_csm_contour_map,
and if not, if there are ways to make the script more efficient. The
contour plots and xy plots are drawn separately using gsn_panel.

I tried plotting the contour plot separately for those certain times, but
it still runs out of memory. I have encountered the same problem for some
other variables before.

I really appreciate some help with this issue.
Melissa
