The amount of r-code that you can run at one time and how much memory it uses are determined by the following factors:
R-code directory size — The default is 100 entries, the minimum is five entries, and the maximum is 2,147,483,647. You can set the initial number of entries using the Directory Size (
-D) startup parameter. OpenEdge dynamically increases the directory size up to the maximum, as required. Use the Hardlimit (
-hardlimit) startup parameter to force OpenEdge to adhere to the limit specified by the Directory Size (
-D) startup parameter.
Execution buffer ceiling — The default is 3096K. You can set the initial ceiling for this buffer up to 65,534K using the Maximum Memory (
-mmax) startup parameter. OpenEdge dynamically increases the execution buffer size up to the maximum, as required. Use the Hardlimit (
-hardlimit) startup parameter to force OpenEdge to adhere to the limit specified by the Maximum Memory (
-mmax) startup parameter.
