Does malloc() have a lot of overhead or am I doing something wrong?If I try to
create a char[] array that is 1GB or greater on my 2GB laptop or the 3GB
desktop the object code created will no load.
I tried to get around this problem by using malloc(). Since the Data_Tracks
were 1MB in I started with 1MB allocations, but even on a 3GB machine with
no applications I get allocation errors after 1.6GB of allocation.
Why?
