New memory exhausted problem |

I recently have run into a repeatable memory exhausted problem. I am
using Fedora Core 5 with the 2.9.9 version distributed iwht FC5.
GNU Octave, version 2.9.9 (i686-redhat-linux-gnu).
The following is the sequence of commands that causes the error:
octave:1> a = zeros(640,210,1800); octave:2> b = zeros(640,210,1800);
error: memory exhausted -- trying to return to prompt
octave:2>
While octave was still running, I ran the 'free' command in a different
window.
address@hidden Tools]$ free
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 3624816 1338440 2286376 0 157252 957628
-/+ buffers/cache: 223560 3401256
Swap: 4096564 0 4096564
Clearly I still have over 2GB of free RAM and the swap disk hasn't even
been touched. Any suggestions as to what is causing the problem?
