Hi commander,

 

 first of all, let me ask you a few questions that should help understand the context of the problem a little better.

 

Which version of LabVIEW are you using?

Which operating system are you using, and which version (32 or 64-bit)?

Hi commander,

 

here are a couple of links that first illustrate the limits:

 

How Much Memory Can LabVIEW Use?

Managing large datasets in LabVIEW

http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/3625

 

So you can in Windows Vista allocate a maximum of 4GB for LabVIEW.

How did you determine that the amount had reached about 1GB?

Did you check in the Windows Task Manager how much was allocated to LabVIEW when it went out of memory?

 

Depending on how you programmed your application, you might be creating more copies of the data than necessary.

 

Please let me know what it says in the task manager before you get the message.

 

You can also use the memory profiler in the tools menu to see which parts of the application are using how much memory.

yes i saw it in the windows task manager, the memory was starting from 2Gb up to 3,75 GB. So the limit of labview is by 4Gb ...??? 😞 this could be the problem 😞 or is ther ea solution to use the full 8GB?

Hi commander,

 

starting with LV 8.5.1, there was extended memory awareness built in so that it could go up to 3GB on a 32-bit machine and 4GB on a 64-bit machine. LabVIEW is still very much a 32-bit application, so that going over 4GB is simply not possible for the moment.

 

I hope this answers your questions.
