This can occur before or during compression. The lz/lza process tends to stop after gaining about 400MB on the process; then it exits with this error. The problem does not appear to be how much available memory I have but rather q question of why the process can't seem to allocate it. Any advice?Take a look at this thread and see if this leads you to an answer. <http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2012-11/msg00104.html> If not, please follow the problem-reporting guidelines found here:Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.htmlThe link sounded promising but no matter how high I set it (tried up to 8192), I get the same error, even when bringing down the compression ratio a bit.
I suggest reading through all the posts in the thread, particularly the recent ones: <https://sourceware.org/cgi-bin/search.cgi?wm=wrd&form=extended&m=all&s=D&ul=%2Fml%2Fcygwin%2F%25&q=xz%20-9%20%3A%20Cannot%20allocate%20memory> If you're still having problems, I recommend you update to the most recent Cygwin DLL if you're not running it already. If that's still no help, I point you back to my recommendation about submitting a full problem report with cygcheck output as described by the link I provided above. -- Larry _____________________________________________________________________ A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting annoying in email? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
