[Orca-users] Out-of-memory error

[David Michaels]

Is it possible the filesystem you have Orca using cannot handle files 
bigger than 2GB?  Maybe the 'out of memory' error is actually a 'file 
too big' error.

You can test this theory by doing a "mkfile 3g bigfile" in the same 
directory, and see if it succeeds.
