What is the limit of prespur VM memory under Windows?

Blondeau Vincent

Hi,

 

I am confronted with a memory issue under Windows. 
I have an image of 745Mo with a Moose model, and I cannot instantiate a string of 30Mo: I get a OutOfMemoryException.
The theoretical limit is 2Go, isn’t it?
 
I have a prespur vm under a Windows 64 bits:

Smalltalk vm version:

'NBCoInterpreter NativeBoost-CogPlugin-EstebanLorenzano.21 uuid: 4d9b9bdf-2dfa-4c0b-99eb-5b110dadc697 Dec  3 2015

I set in Pharo.ini: AddressSpaceLimit=2000000000
 
What can I do to bypass the issue?
 
 
Thanks in advance,
Vincent

Re: What is the limit of prespur VM memory under Windows?

Clément Béra
No.

The limit is supposed to be around 500 Mb on windows or 1 Gb for some specifically compiled VMs. 1 Gb VM may not start on windows, you may need to restart the computer before.

To bypass the limit the best way is to use a spur VM honestly. Spur32VMs are limited to around 2.7Gb on Windows.

A while ago Eliot Miranda posted this script to see when an image runs out of memory:

| them |
them := OrderedCollection new.
[[them addLast: (ByteArray new: 16000000).
Transcript cr; show: ((Smalltalk vm parameterAt: 3) / (1024*1024.0) printShowingDecimalPlaces: 1); flush] repeat]
on: OutOfMemory
do: [:ex| 2 to: them size by: 2 do: [:i| them at: i put: nil. Smalltalk garbageCollect]].
Transcript cr; show: ((Smalltalk vm parameterAt: 3) / (1024*1024.0) printShowingDecimalPlaces: 1); flush.
them := nil.
Smalltalk garbageCollect.
Transcript cr; show: ((Smalltalk vm parameterAt: 3) / (1024*1024.0) printShowingDecimalPlaces: 1); flush




its from here:http://forum.world.st/New-Cog-VMs-available-td4764823.html#a4764840

With that you ought to easily be able to see how high you can go on a platform.

Hi Vincent,

   yes I think you're right that the limit is 2Gb unless you change the system in I file.  Google something like "more than 2gb under Windows" and IIRC you may be able to get 3gb.

One thing is you're using a .ini setting.  Perhaps that doesn't work.  So try using the -memory argument on the command line.

Another thing is that 2gb is 147,483,648 greater than 2,000,000,000 so you could try, say, 2,050,000,000.

Finally you could start the image up on another IS and try and reduce its size, save and then start it back up on Windows.

That's all I can think of right now.

yes you can change the .ini file.

But in a deployed application on windows for a Synectique customer they use 2Gb and sometimes windows doesn't want to start the app, as a work around they found out that windows always agrees to start the app just after being reboot. So the .ini file is good on Unix to allow 2Gb instead of the default 1 Gb, but on windows there are additionnal problems.

So the Spur VM is really the best solution anyway.

Thanks for the  script, it is very useful :)

By running it, I get:
Not spur image: 1143.0 Mo
Spur image: 1140.1 Mo

We are far than the 2Go... even for spur.

Re: What is the limit of prespur VM memory under Windows?

In reply to this post by Eliot Miranda-2

Hi Eliot,

 

I executed the cmd like advised in the link you gave me and change the ini file to AddressSpaceLimit=3000000000

I got now 1384.4 Mo for a non-spur and 1778.0Mo for a spur thanks to the script of Paul.

 

But we still far of the 3Go…

 

Anyway, I tried again and it load all I wanted!

 

Thanks

Vincent

And with a 50613 spur image on Ubuntu that gives me 3917 MB,starting
