Thank you for your responses, but I need to clarify something.....the memory size I was quoting was in mb not kb as I stated. The sequences I use are initialized to a certain length at the beginning of the program. I don't allocate and since it is a sequence, I don't see how I could free(). The size of the sequences is not wavering by much which is why I am having a difficult time finding the memory leak. Thank you again in advance for your help, Kayhlan Kat wrote: > On 20 Feb 2001, at 23:50, kayhlan at EARTHLINK.NET wrote: > > > Hello folks, > > > > I was hoping to find out if anyone of you knowledgeable people has > > experienced > > "out of memory" errors when running large programs in Euphoria.
