Re: [Gems-users] simulation failed

Hi Niket,

Thanks for the reply. However, I'm not running anything that is memory intensive but just ruby. My host machine has 2GB memory, is this enough to run a 64-core sarek target machine?

Thanks,
Yu

It might be because you are running other memory intensive processes or
your host system memory size is too low.
