Octave / Win 2000 memory limitations |

I am currently running Octave 2.1.31 on a Windows 2000 machine with 512Mb of
RAM using the Cygwin bash shell. The biggest array I can create before
seeing "error: memory exhausted -- trying to return to prompt" has only
about 2100000 elements. Eg, at the command prompt :
temp=zeros(2100000,1);
is ok whereas
temp=zeros(2200000,1);
is not. This array should occupy only about 17Mb - far short of what is
available. I have tried looking for a fix/switch etc in the documentation /
FAQS etc but with no luck. I am not sure if there is a simple fix or if in
fact I am encountering a limitation of the Win2K Dos environment.
Any suggestions much appreciated !
Chris
