Isn't the JVM heap a capped at 2GB for 32-bit operating systems/JVM's? On Nov 27, 2008, at 7:19 AM, Roy Mendelssohn wrote:
I do believe THREDDS does all f its work in memory, if so you have to greatly increase the java hep settings. We run at 1500Mb and still run into this. I would be curious to know if even with a very large heap size if file sof tha size can be successfully transferred. -Roy On Nov 27, 2008, at 7:11 AM, Heiko Klein wrote:Hi, I use thredds as opendap server for some large netcdf-files (CF-1.0, size > 1.1GB). When selecting to download the whole file with the 'Get ASCII' or 'GET BINARY', thredds crashes with a 'Java heap error'.I'm currently using a default memory setup, i.e. -Xmx512MB for tomcat.How much memory will I need to avoid this problem. Does DODS read the whole file at once or variable after variable, or even slice after slice? Or are there some adjustments I can make to reduce memory consumption?
