Out of memory error
Out of memory error
(OP)
At where I work, we are using the version of NX 6.0.2.8
I work in the Cam Dept. My co-worker and I are programming
molds daily. The problem we face is receiving the "out of
memory" error. Our IT department has built us both about 3 different computers this year to try to eliminate this problem. My computer has
AMD Athlon 64x2 Dual Core processor 5600+
2.91 GHz 2.00 GB RAM
My co-workers computer has
Intel Pentium Dual Cpu 2200
2.20 GHz 2.00 GB Ram
These new computers have decreased the number of times
we receive the error, compaired to our previous single core
computers w/4.00 GB of Ram. But both of us still get this error almost daily.
Can anyone suggest what we need to do/buy to eliminate the problem.

-32 bit system "out of the box" (max allocable memory is 2gb)
-Add 4gb total physical memory (minimum)
-enable 3gb switch in windows
-switch to 64-bit windows (allows 4gb allocation to 32-bit apps)
-switch to 64-bit software (virtually unlimited memory allocation)

re; 64bit OS being a benefit to a 32bit app. I had not heard about that if the 4GB testing does not show benefit that would be a next step.
keep your fingers crossed.

RE: Out of memory error
the UG does support the dual-processor architecture? My computer have 2 Xeon cpu's and 12 GB RAM, 64bit Vista and 64bit NX6.
"UGII_SMP_ENABLE" enviroment variable is 1 when the UG support the multi-processor mode, otherwise no. I heard, any UG command support the multi cpu mode, but more options do not support it. Maybe this list is accessable?
Can I tune my motherboard bios parameters or can I set any Vista parameters?
thanks,
Rudolf

thanks potero. Maybe the efficiency of computing will become spectaculary in NX7...
I have another problem. Anytimes the UG was frozen, the task manager shown 0% cpu time, but the UG unable to give back the prompt and the "working process" window is not working. I have to kill the ugraf.exe with task manager.
My configuration see bellow. Maybe video card driver is not worked correctly?
thanks,
Rudolf
RE: Out of memory error
anybody have any idea? Maybe try to find first the corrupt component, then export heal geometry and finally overwrite the old model to the fixed part... Why do not give back the UG the prompt? Sometimes the 'working progress' window is not work.
thanks,
Rudolf

RE: Out of memory error
ok, but the CPU usage is 0 %... Maybe NX go limitless cycle? This can be effect circular dependency?
