Memory problems at DEC alpha (fwd)

[H.-J. Werner]

This is certainly not a Molpro problem but a system one.

You might be able to solve the problem by changing some kernel
parameters, most likely per_proc_data_size. This can be
done using the graphical user interface "Sysman" under the
menue item Monitoring/Tuning. The relevant parameters are

 per_proc_stack_size
 max_per_proc_stack_size
 per_proc_data_size
 man_per_proc_data_size
 max_per_proc_address_space
 Per_proc_address_space
