Re: Memory mapping toolkit

[christopher taylor]

I'm not particularly interested in visualizations but a toolbox that can do something similar to python's mmap module - except for mat files.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory-mapped_file 
http://docs.python.org/library/mmap.html 

This would lighten some of the memory constraints individuals would experience loading/accessing really large mat files b/c memory mapping is a method to avoid loading all of the contents in the mat file into octave's memory space.

Matlab offers this functionality:

I was just curious to see if anyone had used boost's memory mapping api or something similar for creating a similar capability in octave.

What exactly is this? What do you have in mind? You want some sort of
graphical representation of how memory is being used?
