Dear ABINIT users and authors,

I am interested how ABINIT estimates the memory. For my task I got the next:
......

P This job should need less than 1552.816 Mbytes of memory.
Rough estimation (10% accuracy) of disk space for files :
WF disk file : 456.758 Mbytes ; DEN or POT disk file : 35.158 Mbytes.
================================================================================

Biggest array : cg(disk), with 456.7582 MBytes.
-P-0000
-P-0000 memana : ERROR -
-P-0000 Test failed to allocate an array of 456.758 Mbytes
-P-0000 It is not worth to continue
-P-0000 Action : modify input variable to fit the available memory,
-P-0000 or increase limit on maximal array size.
-P-0000
-P-0000 leave_new : decision taken to exit ...
-P-0000 leave_new : synchronization done...
-P-0000 leave_new : exiting...
.......

But I compiled the code (4.4.3) on HP SMP machine (64 Gb memory) in 64-bit
mode, so all amount memory are allowed. So, how to solve this problem?

Best wishes,
Sergey
