[ncl-talk] NclMalloc Failed:[errno=12]

[Rick Brownrigg]

So you are trying to allocate an array of almost 7.6GBs.  Does your machine
indeed have that much memory? (if you're not sure, much useful information
can be had about memory and system-load by running the "top" command). I
presume its a 64bit machine and running 64bit NCL (?)
