Out of memory problem

[Eric Aristidi]

 Hello,
 
 While loading a big (2 Mb) data set with a fread command

   X=fread(file,naxis1.*naxis2.*naxis3,'float',0,'ieee-be');

(naxis1=naxis2=256, naxis3=10) then working with these data and
additionnal matrices of size 256x256, I had the following message :
 
 error: memory exhausted -- trying to return to prompt
 
 I work on a PII/400, 128 Mb RAM running Linux Redhat 6.0 and octave
 2.0.14. Is there a way to extend the amount of available memory ?
 
 Thanks for help
