Re: [sc-users] Allocating large memsize (in server.options)

[Josh Parmenter <josh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm assuming you are doing this with Internal? Can you test with localhost?

If I allocate too much, I get this:

Exception in World_New: alloc failed, increase server's memory allocation (e.g. via ServerOptions)

Also - is this scserver? or is this supernova?

Is this OS X? Or Linux?
