- I am really having a rough time trying to understand this. I am writing
- C code on a Sparc 2 with 32mb of RAM, and about 100mb of swap space. It
- seems to me that there must be some limiting factor as to why I can't
- create an array around 10mb in size. I've tried this both globally and
- using the routines in the FAQ to create the array dynamically; both to
- no avail. What is the problem here? I haven't found anything in any of
- the sun manuals that talks about max global array sizes, or any compiler
- limitations, but something is definately screwing things up. If anyone
- has any advice, hints, whatever; it would be greatly appreciated.
