Colleagues: I'm working with WinBUGS 1.4, Win2000, 512M of RAM on my machine, running a moderately complex model. My problem: During the updating phase, after about 1000 iterations, WinBUGS apparently runs out of its RAM allocation and goes to virtual memory on the hard drive, slowing down to a literal crawl. I'd like to either 1) Tell WinBUGS to grab as much RAM as possible; or 2) Tell it not to go to virtual memory when it runs out of RAM. I'd prefer to implement #1, but cannot determine how to do so or if it is even possible. Any recommendations from the list? ----- Dean H.
