I've just compiled a 35Meg program with some static and some dynamic
memory allocation, under cygwin 1.3.2. When I run the executable it
gives the error "Program too big to fit in memory". The program I am
using has previously been run on Unix and Linux on the same underlying
PC architechture. The machine I'm running it on has 128Meg of memory and
the program has run on a machine with half this much before. I think
that the problem is to do with how cygwin allocates memory, or an old
version of malloc. Previous replies to this kind of question have talked
about having a .bin as part of the PATH.
Can anyone out there give me the lowdown on how this would work, and any
other things to try? Thanks.
