[GRASS-user] v.to.rast: out of memory problem on Mac OS X 10.3.9

[Raffaele Morelli]

Hi

I have compiled Grass 6.2.1 on a G5 (dual processor with 1GB ram, enough
isn't it) following the tutorial from KyngChaos (great).
Usually I prefer grass6.2.1 on my debian box, but it is equipped with only
256Mb RAM and a 2000 processor so wanted to try on OSX.

Everything works fine, even if I noticed not relevant performance gain, but
now I am having troubles with v.to.rast.

I got a huge 20m resolution dem and need to create a MASK raster from a
vector, but v.to.rast stops immediatelly with this error message

*** malloc_zone_calloc[8866]: arguments too large: 4090892288,4
ERROR: G_calloc: out of memory

Any ideas about this?

regards
raffaele

ps: did it with my debian box again and it works, slower and with
'rows=1024' but it finally worked.
