Hello all, I was recording a session (using /examples/basic/rec-auto.ck -s) and I recieved the following error about a quarter of the way through: _______ chuck(366,0xa000ed98) malloc: *** vm_allocate(size=10604544) failed (error code=3) chuck(366,0xa000ed98) malloc: *** error: can't allocate region chuck(366,0xa000ed98) malloc: *** set a breakpoint in szone_error to debug terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc' what(): St9bad_alloc Abort trap _______ This is a relatively large session (ca. 6.5 hours), and at the time the .wav file size was about 514MB (out of a projected 1.5-2.0GB). There was more than adequate room on the hard disk to recieve the file and the CPU was not busy with other tasks. The machine is running OS X.4.6 with Dual 1.25 GHz G4 and 512 MB RAM. My questions: a.) what happened? b.) how can I avoid having it happen again? Thanks for chuck -- I am enjoying it very much! Greg Brown [University of Georgia]
