Could not allocate sufficient memory.

[sq5rix]

Hi
I have i7 with 16GB memory, clean 64-bit Ubuntu install
All 5 men tbs generate quickly
I get the following:
rtbgen KQRvKRR -d
Found 145 tablebases.
number of threads = 1
Could not allocate sufficient memory.
Any chance?

Read the readme.md. You need to use the -d flag with 16GB. If you had 24GB ram , -d flag is not needed. Obviously using the -d flag will slow the generation down. I created all 6 man using a 12 core Mac Pro with 32 GB ram. Roughly 72 hours.

Sent from my iPhone Edit : I now see you did use the -d flag , I’m not sure why it failed.

Thanks for the answer.
I did use -d I went down to one thread too
Can it be that swap is too small?

Ok, it was not enough memory, I rebooted and now it's running great!
