Same problem for VIs of size >20MB with the same version of LV.
I think our PCs are dead slow... !
What configuration do U ve ?
Mine is P4, 2.80 GHz, 1 GB RAM. I think this is not enough for LV.
When we asked NI, they told us for LV 7.1 & LV 8.20, even 512 MB RAM is enough, for LV 8.0 only 1 GB RAM is required.
Can experts ve a say on this issue ?!

Hi Gerdw,
I think I know 1/10th of the LV Style Guidelines, if not all of them.
But the problem is in 2 of my VIs in my application, they require extrordinary insertion, replacement & deletion of large chunk of data. say, constantly 16xN. This is because the user will choose digital signals of 0s & 1s for the 16 channels for N no of samples (columns) he wants & then in turn frame the test conditions for a particular test of an IC.
Since the user needs to insert, replace or delete whenever he wants, I need to keep an array of a predeclared size of 4Kx4K.
I think this eats u a lot of disc space indeed as you ve mentioned in your earlier post.
I cant think of a much better way to accomplish this task. Seperate file for each chunk of digital signal values will become another big problem with respect to insertion, replacement & deletion as pewr the serial nos, since this wil require to reneme or delete the file itself.
I hope this clearly explains you of my situation.

Hi GerdW,
Can you follow this procedure ? Open a VI & make a 2-D Integer Array constant of U8.
Put the indices to 4096x4096 & fill with 0. This is what I had assigned 0s upto & kept inside those 2 VIs.
Now save the VI & see its size, a whopping 16 MB right ?
Try t out with Binary format for the Integer Array. Then also it is the same size. Not even a slight diff, right ?
Or, don't I understand what you meant to do... ?!
For 2-D Integer Array of U16 of the above size, the VI size is a whopping 32 MB for both the cases, viz, normal integer & binary integer.
Can you explain a bit more to me about how to really reduce the VI size by reducing this 2-D Integer Array size ?
I reall ydon't know...
