Hi Subbu,
Vaguely rings a bell. From years ago.
Try the command "limit" in tcsh or csh (I think it's ulimit in bash,
don't use bash myself).
[Mac OS X is a Unix system (BSD) so it should be similar if not identical].
I get here on a Linux box:
limit (followed by carriage return)
cputime unlimited
filesize unlimited
datasize unlimited
stacksize unlimited
coredumpsize 0 kbytes
memoryuse unlimited
vmemoryuse unlimited
descriptors 1024
memorylocked 32 kbytes
maxproc 32736
and make sure that memoryuse is unlimited
You add a line in your .cshrc or .tcshrc file:
limit memoryuse unlimited
Of course this will apply if the problem is due to your system not allocating
enough
memory for the process.
If it's something else, I wouldn't know.
HTH,
Fred.
