Hi, I'm running Mathematica 4.0 Windows under Windows 2000 Pro. I got a question concerning the memory handling of/in Mathematica. Within an engineering optimization I have to deal with very big numerical matrices simultaneously in a Mathematica session. In order to not overflow the physical memory (1.5 GB!) I arranged to save and reload some of these matrices from and to disk during execution. For fast I/O of the matrices I use "binary.exe" by John Fultz, fultz at wolfram.com, http://www.mathsource.com/MathSource/Enhancements/MathLink/0206-783/
