Hi George,
Allocating memory is one thing. Being able to use it it's a
completely different story. Once you allocate the 8GB array can you
fill it with some random values ? This will force the kernel to
really give you the 8GB of memory. If this segfault, then that's the
problem. If not ... the

Thanks for your replies.

Juan, are you sure you can allocate more than 2x 4GB memory of data in
non-mpi program on your system?
Yes, I did a small program that

Juan,
I have to check to see what's wrong there. We build Open MPI with
full support for data transfer up to sizeof(size_t) bytes. so you
case should be covered. However, there are some known problems with
the MPI interface for data larger than sizeof(int). As an example the
_count field
