Hi,

by increasing the data segment size to unlimited I get 1048576 kbytes
now as limit (approx. the size of the memory of my system(512MB).
Which is not enough in certain cases.

Because the swap space is 1,5GB - is it reasonable to increase this
size further on or can these areas not be swapped?
If it can be swapped - there could another problem arise. The application
(Matlab) needs contiguous memory. If it calls for contiguous memory
could this be considered as such if it needs swap space?

Thanks and regards

Otto
