[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #44380] Facing memory limit of less than 1 GB

[Tom]

Follow-up Comment #15, bug #44380 (project octave):

I don't understand how this is closed as invalid. It's obviously a bug. In the
octave documentation it says 

"
On 64-bit systems, Octave is limited to (approximately) the following array
sizes when using the default 32-bit indexing mode:

double:         16GB
single:          8GB
uint64, int64:  16GB
uint32, int32:   8GB
uint16, int16:   4GB
uint8, int8:     2GB
"

The idea that it is solved because there are build options to circumvent
memory limits is kind of ridiculous because this isn't about the memory limits
of octave, this is about a bug, I shouldn't have to compile as 64bit just to
allocate a 1.5GB double array, as I *should* be able to do ten times that on
the 32 bit install.
