Hi Natalia,

add this into your Pharo.ini

AddressSpaceLimit=2048

On Windows you will reach at least 1,6GB of image size. The problem is that this could also crash at 1.2GB since zou computer must have "ONE block" of memory available for the PharoVM. So for the beginning it might be a good idea to have other application that are not really needed closed.

And check your implementations and the garbage collection!
I find that I had trouble to load data since e.g. the Playground does not really free the memory once you close a pane. So close playgrounds that are not used, too.

I was able to load a 600Mb GIS shape file the other day and visualize it with Roassal.... but in that case there is not much space for processing anything left
the image becomes very unstable.

I currently try to use Gemstone and tODE onServerDo: blocks to find a way around this.
As well as spwaning additional Pharo images, but I can't share anything yet.

Hello.
I want to load mse file (238 MB) into Moose image and I want to download even bigger files in the future. But the image crashed during the loading.

I tried to increase the size of image by adding the memory from command line ( --memory 4092; and even --memory 4190208), however the amount of “Space left” didn’t change.

Is there any way to solve this?

Best regards,

Natalia
