It should be 4096MB. This is causing me not to be able to download work units. Any ideas on what would be causing this? Here is the complete log: 12/4/2005 1:28:00 AM\|\|Starting BOINC client version 5.2.13 for i686-pc-linux-gnu 12/4/2005 1:28:00 AM\|\|libcurl/7.14.0 OpenSSL/0.9.8 zlib/1.2.3 12/4/2005 1:28:00 AM\|\|Data directory: /BOINC 12/4/2005 1:28:00 AM\|\|Processor: 1 12/4/2005 1:28:00 AM\|\|Memory: -4096 bytes physical, 0 bytes virtual 12/4/2005 1:28:00 AM\|\|Disk: 5.81 GB total, 4.76 GB free ID: 202572 ·
