Memory usage
The amount of memory used by the program during a calculation is determined by three quantities:
- The size of the program itself (executable statements, fixed arrays in
subroutines...).
This quantity depends on the program release number and is
currently somewhere between 10 and 16 Mb.
- Buffer space used by adf for more
efficient I/O handling. This quantity is set at installation.
See the Installation Manual.
- Dynamically allocated arrays. The program allocates memory dynamically during the run conform
the requirements of the actual calculation.
