Malloc problem #71
Description
Hi,
I'm using ILCSoft for muoncollider simulation/reconstruction. At the end of a long reconstruction
I have this message (activating the VERBOSE flag in lcio):
A runtime error occured - (uncaught exception):
lcio::IOException: [SIOWriter::writeEvent] couldn't write event record to stream: Output_REC_000_slcio0
Marlin will have to be terminated, sorry.
And in the log file:
[ VERBOSE "Output_REC"] SIO: [Output_REC_000_slcio0/LCEvent/] Allocated a 536870912(0x20000000) byte buffer
[ VERBOSE "Output_REC"] SIO: [Output_REC_000_slcio0/LCEvent/] Allocated a 1073741824(0x40000000) byte buffer
[ VERBOSE "Output_REC"] SIO: [Output_REC_000_slcio0/LCEvent/] Buffer allocation failed
So it seems that it is not able to allocate 2Gb of buffer.
I have tried to play with the ulimit command:
max memory size (kbytes, -m) unlimited
stack size (kbytes, -s) 2202000
virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited
file locks (-x) unlimited
But it doesn't help.
Do you have any suggestions?
