Disk space: GMT contains some 100,000 lines of code. On a Linux workstation the executables take up about 15-50 Mb depending on use of shared libraries. In addition there are support data such as GSHHS coastlines, rivers, and political boundaries. The default distribution of these data includes intermediate, low and crude resolution versions which together takes up another 5 Mb of space. These are sufficient for most regional map applications.

According to a paper present by Dan Hamel of Transarc, at the Decorum conference in February 1994, the following can be used as rough guidelines: end-user machines: Each dce_login creates new credential files, which can build up. Space usage can range from less than 1k to over 100k. The security server as shipped by the Open Group keeps all security registry information resident in main memory, which means that the security host machine needs memory as well as disk.

Well... er... you need about 128M of total memory and about 280M of disk space. And yes, we are working on solutions (after all, we compile it every day).

an example, consider a file of 100,000 lines with an integer and text description on each line. Suppose the text string avergages twenty bytes in length. The flat file would be 2.8 MB. The size of the PostgreSQL database file containing this data can be estimated as 5.

You can probably cram the basics (i.e. base and etc distribution sets) into 80 MB or less, but here are some words of wisdom from Bill Studenmund (wrstuden@loki.stanford.edu): 100 meg would get you going for a root partition, but depending upon the toys, you'll want more. My setup is ~100 Meg for my root partition, and ~350 Meg for my USR partition.

SNAP Health Center requires an average of 50KB per student. PSNI has designed a database that has very little redundant stored data- data is stored once but accessed where it is needed.

This depends upon the nature of your program. X11 applications typically need more disk space than a daemon or a character-based application. The MKS NuTCRACKER Workstation requires around 4Mb of disk space. The NuTCRACKER Deployment Wizard will estimate how much disk space you will need, based on the components you need to redistribute.

The CWIS software itself requires less than 5 MB. Database storage requirements will, of course, vary with the number of resource records stored, but the disk usage is very modest by today's standards, since CWIS is primarily storing text-based metadata.

Sentry uses a form of demand paging for memory-tight environments. When you open a compressed dictionary, you can specify a memory budget. The memory budget can be as small as 40K or as large as the disk image of the dictionary (typically 350K - 1Mb). The larger the budget, the faster Sentry runs. A typical application containing Sentry will need an additional 450K of memory and 400K of disk space.

The WSpell OCX file is about 110K. The American, British, and Canadian English dictionaries each occupy just over 300K. At run time, WSpell will use a maximum of about 500K of memory.

The engine’s DLL file is about 120K in size. The American and UK English dictionaries, which are included with the Spelling Server, each occupy slightly over 300K. At run time, the Spellex Spelling Server will use a maximum of approximately 500K of memory space.

Yes, SiteMonster 3.0 allows you to monitor available space of Hard Disk and Memory, and CPU usage as long as a SNMP agent is installed.

Client Communiqu? does not require additional RAM to be installed. Only normal Windows requirements need be met, however as with most other programs, speed may increase with the addition of memory. Client Communiqu? requires a minimal amount of hard drive space. Only 10-20 Meg Bytes of space is required for the program files.

I'm trying to populate a Cluster database. The loading process terminates prematurely and I get an error message like this one: ERROR 1114: The table 'my_cluster_table' is full

The payment made for the use of disk space is not a sales price, but a service fee. The student buys a service, not title to the space on the disk. Think in terms of monthly telephone service, you pay for the right to use the telephone lines when you pay your monthly phone bill. The University owns the medium; it does not purport to own copyrightable work placed on/in the medium.

Several points about the design of the Base/1 Number Class contribute to its ability to precisely represent very large and very small numbers in a minimum amount of space: compact representation packs two decimal digits into each byte If one were to simply store long numbers as character strings, it would take about twice as much space.

Surprisingly little! See Technical Details for information on Wintertree Spelling Server's resource requirements.
