- We have a 730 with 128 MB memory and about 3 times that in swap
- space. One of the users wants to perform as large a calculation
- (large arrays) as possible, which will force us to customize the
- kernel process parameters, or at least some subset of them. It
- is not clear to me what the subtleties might be in setting maxdsiz,
- maxssiz, and maxtsiz. Can anybody help on this? What problems
- will we be likely to run into setting these parameters up to, say,
- 340 MB, assuming that only the one mammoth job will be running?
-
- Thanks in advance.
